how many integer values of x can satisfy the eq : (x^2 - x -1)^(x+2)=1
a 4 b 2 c 3 d none of these
Read Solution (Total 14)
-
- A) 4
-2,-1,0,2 will satisfy the condition - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(11) No(0)
- -2,-1,0,2 these integer values will satisfy the equation.
Option A. 4
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(0)
- the answer is option (b) 2 only two solutions are possible -1 and 2
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- Answer : 3
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- 3. taking log both sides, either x+2=0 or x^2-x-1=1
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- o always a trivial solutn of polynomial
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- answer is 2
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
- -1,-2,0,1,2....
ans: d - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- please explain this

- taking log both sides we have
either x+2 =0 which gives x=-2
else log (x^2-x-1)=0 which results in x=2,-1 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- 2 WILL SATISFY
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- let a=>a^0=1
=>let a= x^2-x-1
then a^(x+2)=1
=>x+2=0 =>x=-2 so ans is d)none of these - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
- sub x=0,-1,2,-2 in the given eqn
ans is 4 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- d) none of these.
-2,-1,0,1,2 i.e 5 integers satisfies the equation. maybe even more integers as well. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
