  • question_answer
    If \[\alpha \] and \[\beta \] are the roots of the equation \[{{x}^{2}}-5x-1=0,\] then the value of \[\frac{{{\alpha }^{15}}+{{\alpha }^{11}}+{{\beta }^{15}}+{{\beta }^{11}}}{{{\alpha }^{13}}+{{\beta }^{13}}}\] is

    A) \[7\]

    B) \[17\]

    C) \[27\]

    D) \[37\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] \[\frac{{{\alpha }^{15}}+{{\beta }^{15}}+{{\alpha }^{11}}+{{\beta }^{11}}}{{{\alpha }^{13}}+{{\beta }^{13}}}\] \[=\frac{{{\alpha }^{15}}+{{\beta }^{15}}+{{\alpha }^{2}}{{\beta }^{2}}({{\alpha }^{11}}+{{\beta }^{11}})}{{{\alpha }^{13}}+{{\beta }^{13}}}\,\,\,\,\,\,\,(\alpha \beta =-1)\] \[=\frac{{{\alpha }^{15}}+{{\alpha }^{13}}{{\beta }^{2}}+{{\beta }^{15}}+{{\alpha }^{2}}{{\beta }^{13}}}{{{\alpha }^{13}}+{{\beta }^{13}}}\] \[=\frac{({{\alpha }^{13}}+{{\beta }^{13}})({{\alpha }^{2}}+{{\beta }^{2}})}{{{\alpha }^{13}}+{{\beta }^{13}}}\] \[={{\alpha }^{2}}+{{\beta }^{2}}={{(\alpha +\beta )}^{2}}-2\alpha \beta =27\]
