    If \[{{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}}+\frac{1}{{{\mathbf{x}}^{\mathbf{2}}}}=\mathbf{123}.\]Then the value of \[{{\mathbf{x}}^{3}}-\frac{1}{{{\mathbf{x}}^{3}}}\] is

    A)  1340                           

    B)  1364   

    C)  1358                           

    D)  1360

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    (b): We know that \[{{\left( x-\frac{1}{x} \right)}^{2}}={{x}^{2}}+\frac{1}{{{x}^{2}}}-2\Rightarrow {{\left( x-\frac{1}{x} \right)}^{2}}=123-2\]\[\Rightarrow {{\left( x-\frac{1}{x} \right)}^{2}}=121\]             \[{{\left( x-\frac{1}{x} \right)}^{2}}={{11}^{2}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow x-\frac{1}{x}=11\]                   \[\Rightarrow \left( x+\frac{1}{x} \right)={{11}^{3}}\] \[\Rightarrow {{x}^{3}}-\frac{1}{{{x}^{3}}}-3\left( x-\frac{1}{x} \right)=1331\]  \[\Rightarrow {{x}^{3}}-\frac{1}{{{x}^{3}}}-3\times 11=1331\Rightarrow {{x}^{3}}-\frac{1}{{{x}^{3}}}=1331+33\Rightarrow {{x}^{3}}-\frac{1}{{{x}^{3}}}=1364\]
