Question

If x3+y3=35x^3+y^3=35​, x+y=5 x+y=5​, find the value of: x4+y4x^4+y^4​​

A.

79

B.

97

C.

98

D.

87

Correct option is B

Formula Used:
x3 + y3 = (x + y)3 - 3xy(x + y)
x2 + y2 = (x + y)2 - 2xy
Solution:
35 = 53 - 3xy(5)
xy = 6 Then,
(x2 + y2) = 52 - 2 × 6 = 13 Then,
to find x4 + y4 
(x2)2 + (y2)2
 = (x2 + y2)2 - 2x2y2
= 132 - 2(6)2
= 97
x4 + y4 = 97
