The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of the expression \( (x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3}) - 7(x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2}) + (x + \frac{1}{x}) \) given that \( x = \frac{7 - \sqrt{45}}{2} \). ### Step 1: Find \( x + \frac{1}{x} \) First, we need to calculate \( x + \frac{1}{x} \). 1. **Calculate \( \frac{1}{x} \)**: \[ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{2}{7 - \sqrt{45}} \] To rationalize this, we multiply the numerator and denominator by \( 7 + \sqrt{45} \): \[ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{2(7 + \sqrt{45})}{(7 - \sqrt{45})(7 + \sqrt{45})} = \frac{2(7 + \sqrt{45})}{49 - 45} = \frac{2(7 + \sqrt{45})}{4} = \frac{7 + \sqrt{45}}{2} \] 2. **Now calculate \( x + \frac{1}{x} \)**: \[ x + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{7 - \sqrt{45}}{2} + \frac{7 + \sqrt{45}}{2} = \frac{(7 - \sqrt{45}) + (7 + \sqrt{45})}{2} = \frac{14}{2} = 7 \] ### Step 2: Find \( x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2} \) Using the identity: \[ x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2} = (x + \frac{1}{x})^2 - 2 \] Substituting the value we found: \[ x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2} = 7^2 - 2 = 49 - 2 = 47 \] ### Step 3: Find \( x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3} \) Using the identity: \[ x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3} = (x + \frac{1}{x})^3 - 3(x + \frac{1}{x}) \] Substituting the value we found: \[ x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3} = 7^3 - 3 \cdot 7 = 343 - 21 = 322 \] ### Step 4: Substitute into the original expression Now we substitute \( x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3} \), \( x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2} \), and \( x + \frac{1}{x} \) into the expression: \[ (x^3 + \frac{1}{x^3}) - 7(x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2}) + (x + \frac{1}{x}) \] Substituting the values: \[ = 322 - 7 \cdot 47 + 7 \] Calculating \( 7 \cdot 47 \): \[ 7 \cdot 47 = 329 \] Now substituting back: \[ = 322 - 329 + 7 = 322 - 329 + 7 = 0 \] ### Final Answer The value of the expression is \( 0 \).
