Question : If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the roots of equation $x^{2}-x+1=0$, then which equation will have roots $\alpha ^{3}$ and $\beta ^{3}?$

Option 1: $x^{2}+2x+1=0$

Option 2: $x^{2}-2x-1=0$

Option 3: $x^{2}+3x-1=0$

Option 4: $x^{2}-3x+1=0$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $x^{2}+2x+1=0$


Solution : $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are roots of the equation $x^{2}-x+1=0$
⇒ $\alpha+\beta=1$ and $\alpha\beta=1$
Now we need to find the equation whose roots are $\alpha ^{3}$ and $\beta ^{3}$.
⇒ $(\alpha^{3}+\beta^{3})=(\alpha+\beta)^{3}-3\alpha\beta\times(\alpha+\beta)$
⇒ $(\alpha^{3}+\beta^{3})=(1)^{3}-3\times 1 \times (1)$
⇒ Sum of roots = $(\alpha^{3}+\beta^{3})=-2$
Also, Product of roots
