if 2p/(p^2-2p+1) =1/4 ,p!=0,then the value of p+1/p is:
option: 4,5,10,12
Read Solution (Total 5)
-
- P^2-2p+1=8p given
P+(1/p)=(p^2+1)/p=(p^2+1+2p-2p)/p
=10p/p=10.
Ans:10 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(15) No(1)
- 8p=(p^2-2p+1)
8p=p^2(1-2/p+1/p^2)
8=p(1-2/p+1/p^2)
8=p-2+1/p
10=p+1/p
so Ans=10 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(0)
- 8p=(p-1)^2
8=p(1-1/p)^2
8=p-2+1/P then p+1/p=10 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 2p/p^2-2p+1=1/4
by taking p common,
2p/p(p-2+1/p)=1/4
cancelling p we get,
2/p-2+1/p=1/4
8=p-2+1/p then
8+2=p+1/p
10=p+1/p
so answer is 10 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 10
p=10-96^0.5
(p+1/p)^2=p^2+(1/p)^2+2=100
p+1/p=10
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
