Correct Answer :

Option A

44853 3

Solution :

The correct option is 448533.

To find the value of x7+1x7, we can break the derivation down step-by-step using algebraic identities.

Step 1: Find the value of x+1x

We are given:

x2+1x2=25

Using the algebraic identity (a+b)2=a2+b2+2ab:

(x+1x)2=x2+1x2+2

Substitute the given value:

(x+1x)2=25+2=27

Taking the square root on both sides (since x>0):

x+1x=27=33

Step 2: Find the value of x3+1x3

Using the identity a3+b3=(a+b)3-3ab(a+b):

x3+1x3=(x+1x)3-3(x+1x)

Substitute x+1x=33:

x3+1x3=(33)3-3(33)

x3+1x3=813-93=723

Step 3: Find the value of x4+1x4

Squaring x2+1x2=25:

(x2+1x2)2=x4+1x4+2

252=x4+1x4+2

625=x4+1x4+2x4+1x4=623

Step 4: Combine the results to find x7+1x7

Multiply (x3+1x3) by (x4+1x4):

(x3+1x3)(x4+1x4)=x7+1x+x+1x7

Rearranging the equation gives:

x7+1x7=(x3+1x3)(x4+1x4)-(x+1x)

Substitute the calculated values into the formula:

x7+1x7=(723)(623)-33

x7+1x7=448563-33=448533
