From the sum and product of roots, we get: α +β =−3λ and α β =−31
Simplifying the expression given in the question, we get: α2β2 α2+β2 =15
and substituting the denominator's value as 1/9, we get:α2+β2 =915
We want the expression α3+β3 , so multiplying both sides by α+β, we get:
α3+β3+αβ(a+β )=915(α +β )
α3+β3+9λ =915(−3λ )
α3+β3+9λ =−95λ−9λ=−32λ
We would still need to find the value of λ
This we can do from the initial relation we had:
α2+β2 =915
α2+β2 =(α+β)2−2α β =915
9λ2+32 =915
9λ2 =915−6=99=1
This would finally give us λ2=9
Using this in our required expression, we get:
(α3+β3)2=(−32λ )2=94× 9=4
Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.
