If α, β , γ are the roots of the equations x3+4x+8=0, then find the values of
a. α+β+γ
b. αβ+βγ+γα
c. αβγ
d. α^3+β^3+γ^3
If α, β, γ are the roots of the equations
x3 + 4x + 8 = 0,
then find the values of
x³ + 4x + 8 = 0 â let: x = u + v
(u + v)³ + 4(u + v) + 8 = 0
[(u + v)²(u + v)] + 4(u + v) + 8 = 0
[(u² + 2uv + v²)(u + v)] + 4(u + v) + 8 = 0
[u³ + u²v + 2u²v + 2uv² + uv² + v³] + 4(u + v) + 8 = 0
[u³ + v³ + 3u²v + 3uv²] + 4(u + v) + 8 = 0
(u³ + v³) + (3u²v + 3uv²) + 4(u + v) + 8 = 0
(u³ + v³) + 3uv(u + v) + 4(u + v) + 8 = 0
(u³ + v³) + [(u + v)(3uv + 4)] + 8 = 0 â suppose that: (3uv + 4) = 0 â equation (1)
(u³ + v³) + [(u + v) * 0] + 8 = 0
(u³ + v³) + 8 = 0 â equation (2)
You get a system of 2 equations:
(1) : (3uv + 4) = 0
(1) : 3uv = - 4
(1) : uv = - 4/3
(1) : u³v³ = - 4³/3³
(2) : (u³ + v³) + 8 = 0
(2) : u³ + v³ = - 8
Let: U = u³
Let: V = v³
The system becomes:
(1) : UV = - 4³/3³ â this is the product P
(2) : u³ + v³ = - 8 â this is the sum S
You know that U and V are the solution of the equation:
x² - Sx + P = 0
x² + 8x - (4³/3³) = 0
Π= 8² - 4[1 * - (4³/3³)]
Î = 64 + (256/27)
Î = 1984/27
Î = (64/9) * (31/3)
x1 = [- 8 - (8/3).â(31/3)] / 2 = - 4 - (4/3).â(31/3) â this is U
x2 = [- 8 + (8/3).â(31/3)] / 2 = - 4 + (4/3).â(31/3) â this is V
U = u³ â u = U^(1/3) â u = [- 4 - (4/3).â(31/3)]^(1/3)
V = v³ â v = V^(1/3) â v = [- 4 + (4/3).â(31/3)]^(1/3)
Recall: x = u + v â x â - 1.36465560765604 â this is the only root
Why did you tell that there are 3 roots?
