If x4+1x4=23x^{4}+frac{1}{x^{4}}=23, then the value of (x1x)2left(x-frac{1}{x} ight)^{2} will be

a

– 7

b

– 3

c

3

d

7

Answer : Option C
Explanation :

x4+1x4=23x^{4}+frac{1}{x^{4}}=23

(x2+1x2)22=23Rightarrowleft(x^{2}+frac{1}{x^{2}} ight)^{2}-2=23

(x2+1x2)2=23+2=25Rightarrowleft(x^{2}+frac{1}{x^{2}} ight)^{2}=23+2=25

x2+1x2=5 herefore quad x^{2}+frac{1}{x^{2}}=5

(x1x)2=x2+1x22 herefore quadleft(x-frac{1}{x} ight)^{2}=x^{2}+frac{1}{x^{2}}-2

=52=3quad=5-2=3
