    {x3┬а- (1/x3) }.
    A 3405 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 3420 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 3560 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 3340 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    We have, x2┬а= 15x + 1Divide both sides by 'x', x = 15 + (1/x) so, (x - 1/x) = 15 Cubing both sides, (x - 1/x)3 = 153 Using, (a - b)┬а3┬а= a3┬а- b3┬а- 3ab(a - b) (x - 1/x)3 =┬аx3┬а- (1/x)3┬а- 3(x - 1/x) 153 = x3┬а- (1/x)3┬а- 3 x 15 So, (x - 1/x)3┬а= 2275 + 45 = 3420
