Options
- A642
- B643
- C644
- D645
Correct answer
A. 642
Step-by-step solution
Let , and are the roots of x^3-6 x^2+3 x+10=0 Also, let = + 2 2 = + +2+ =6 + =4 ...(i) Also, =-10 =-5 Now, - = ( + )^2-4 = 16+20 = 6 aligned & Equation (i) + (ii) & 2 =10 =5 & from (i) =4-5=-1 & Now, ^4+ ^4+ ^4=5^4+2^4+(-1)^4=625+16+1 & =642 aligned
