Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 2)(x² + 7x + 4) = x(x² + 7x + 4) - 2*(x² + 7x + 4)

= x*x² + x*7x + 4*x - 2*x² -2* 7x -2* 4

= x³ + 7x² + 4x - 2x² -14x -8

= x³ + 7x² - 2x² + 4x - 14x - 8

= x³ + 5x² - 10x - 8

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 $b=-3$ .
