The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( \alpha_9 \) given the roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) of the quadratic equation \( x^2 - 2x + 3 = 0 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Find the roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \)**: The roots of the equation \( x^2 - 2x + 3 = 0 \) can be found using the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] Here, \( a = 1, b = -2, c = 3 \). \[ x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4 \cdot 1 \cdot 3}}{2 \cdot 1} = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{4 - 12}}{2} = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{-8}}{2} = \frac{2 \pm 2i\sqrt{2}}{2} = 1 \pm i\sqrt{2} \] Thus, the roots are: \[ \alpha = 1 + i\sqrt{2}, \quad \beta = 1 - i\sqrt{2} \] 2. **Set up the recurrence relation**: We know that: \[ \alpha_n = p\alpha^n + q\beta^n \] From the characteristic equation derived from the roots, we can establish the recurrence relation: \[ \alpha_{n+2} = 2\alpha_{n+1} - 3\alpha_n \] This is derived from the fact that both \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) satisfy the original quadratic equation. 3. **Calculate \( \alpha_0 \) and \( \alpha_1 \)**: We need initial conditions for the recurrence relation: - For \( n = 0 \): \[ \alpha_0 = p\alpha^0 + q\beta^0 = p + q \] - For \( n = 1 \): \[ \alpha_1 = p\alpha^1 + q\beta^1 = p\alpha + q\beta \] 4. **Use the recurrence relation to find \( \alpha_9 \)**: We can calculate \( \alpha_2, \alpha_3, \ldots, \alpha_9 \) using the recurrence relation: \[ \alpha_2 = 2\alpha_1 - 3\alpha_0 \] \[ \alpha_3 = 2\alpha_2 - 3\alpha_1 \] \[ \alpha_4 = 2\alpha_3 - 3\alpha_2 \] \[ \alpha_5 = 2\alpha_4 - 3\alpha_3 \] \[ \alpha_6 = 2\alpha_5 - 3\alpha_4 \] \[ \alpha_7 = 2\alpha_6 - 3\alpha_5 \] \[ \alpha_8 = 2\alpha_7 - 3\alpha_6 \] \[ \alpha_9 = 2\alpha_8 - 3\alpha_7 \] 5. **Final Calculation**: Substitute the values of \( \alpha_0 \) and \( \alpha_1 \) into the recurrence relation to compute \( \alpha_9 \).

To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( \alpha_9 \) given the roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) of the quadratic equation \( x^2 - 2x + 3 = 0 \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Find the roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \)**: The roots of the equation \( x^2 - 2x + 3 = 0 \) can be found using the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} ...
