Find the value of x² - x+1 when x=√3 -1, in the form a+b√3 where a and b are integers

lidiya [134]

Answer:

$6-3\sqrt{3}$

If you compare this to $a+b\sqrt{3}$ , then $a=6$ and $b=-3$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given $x=\sqrt{3}-1$ and we are asked to find the value of $x^2-x+1$ .

So we will need to find $x^2$ .

$x=\sqrt{3}-1$

Square both sides:

$x^2=(\sqrt{3}-1)^2$

Expand using identity: $(x-a)^2=x^2-2ax+a^2$ .

$x^2=(\sqrt{3})^2-2(\sqrt{3})(1)+1^2$

$x^2=3-2\sqrt{3}+1$

$x^2=4-2\sqrt{3}$

Let's go back to the full $x^2-x+1$ .

$x^2-x+1$

$(4-2\sqrt{3})-(\sqrt{3}-1)+1$

$4-2\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{3}+1+1$

$6-3\sqrt{3}$

If you compare this to $a+b\sqrt{3}$ , then $a=6$ and $b=-3$ .

Add and subtract rational numbers without common denominators. Show work! 1. 7/4 - 3/2 - 2/5 = 2. - 5/16 + 3/4 + 1/8 = 3. 3/4 -

alukav5142 [94]

$\dfrac{7}{4} - \dfrac{3}{2} - \dfrac{2}{5}$

$= \dfrac{7 \times 5}{4 \times 5} - \dfrac{3 \times 10}{2 \times 10} - \dfrac{2 \times 4}{5 \times 4}$

$= \dfrac{35}{20} - \dfrac{30}{20} - \dfrac{8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{35-30-8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{3}{20}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$-\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3}{4} + \dfrac{1}{8}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3 \times 4}{4 \times 4} + \dfrac{1 \times 2}{8 \times 2}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{12}{16} + \dfrac{2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{-5+ 12 + 2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{9}{16}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$\dfrac{3}{4} - \dfrac{1}{3} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3} - \dfrac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9}{12} - \dfrac{4}{12} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9 - 4 - 7}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{2}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{1}{6}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$\dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{2}{12} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{1}{6} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2 \times 2}{9 \times 2} - \dfrac{1 \times 3}{6 \times 3} - \dfrac{2 \times 6}{3 \times 6}$

$= \dfrac{4}{18} - \dfrac{3}{18} - \dfrac{12}{18}$

$= \dfrac{4 - 3 - 12}{18}$

$= - \dfrac{11}{18}$
