-
- 14√2
- 14√3
- 22√2
- 10√2
- 14√2
Correct Option: C
x = √3 + √2
| ∴ | = | ||
| x | √3 + √2 |
| = | |||
| ( √3 + √2 )( √3 - √2 ) |
= √3 - √2
| ∴ x + | = √3 + √2 + √3 + √2 = 2√2 | ||
| x |
Cubing both sides,
| ⇒ | ![]() | x - | ![]() | 3 | = 16√2 | |
| x |
| ⇒ x3 - | - 3 | ![]() | x - | ![]() | = 16√2 | ||
| x3 | x |
| ⇒ x3 - | - 3 × 2√2 = 16√2 | |
| x3 |
| ⇒ x3 - | = 16√2 + 6√2 = 22√2 | |
| x3 |
