Worked practice questions

If a is positive and a² + 1/a² = 7, then a³ + 1/a³ equals:

  1. 21
  2. 3√7
  3. 18
  4. 7√7
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. 18

1. (a + 1/a)² = a² + 1/a² + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9, so a + 1/a = 3. 2. a³ + 1/a³ = (a + 1/a)³ − 3(a + 1/a). 3. = 27 − 9 = 18. _Source: RRB Group D CEN-02/2018 PYQ, Q.39._
