The items containing x 3 are: (2b-3a) x 3,
Items containing x are: (b-3) x,
Because this product contains neither x 3 term nor x term,
So 2b-3a = 0, b-3 = 0,
So a = 2 and b = 3.
(2) Because A+B = 7 and AB = 1 1,
So (a-b) 2 = (a+b) 2-4ab.
=49-44
=5,
So (a-b) 4 = 25.
(3) Let this cubic polynomial about X be: AX 3+BX 2+CX+D.
Then because when x is equal to 0, 1 and-1, 2, the values of polynomials are-1, -2, 0 and 3 respectively.
So d =- 1
a+b+c+d= - 2
- a+b - c+d=0
8a+4b+2c+d=3
To solve this system of equations:
a= 1,b=0,c= - 2,d= - 1
So this polynomial about x is: x 3-2x- 1.
(4)(a-b+c-d)(c-a-d-b)=(c-b-d+a)(c-b-d-a)
= (C-B-d)^2-a^2
= c 2+b 2+d 2-2cd+2bd-a^2 BC.
