Question : If $\frac{1}{(x-2)}+x=8$, then what is the value of $\frac{1}{(x-2)^2}+(x-2)^2$?

Option 1: 38

Option 2: 36

Option 3: 40

Option 4: 34

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 34


Solution : Given: $\frac{1}{(x-2)}+x=8$
Subtracting 2 from both sides, we get:
⇒ $\frac{1}{(x-2)}+x-2=6$
Squaring both sides, we get,
⇒ $\frac{1}{(x-2)^2}+(x-2)^2+2\times \frac{1}{(x-2)} \times(x-2) = 36$
⇒ $\frac{1}{(x-2)^2}+(x-2)^2=36-2$
⇒ $\frac{1}{(x-2)^2}+(x-2)^2=34$
Hence, the correct answer is 34.
