Solution

The question seems to be a bit unclear. However, if you're asking for the value of x^3 + 1/x^3 where x = 2 + โˆš3, here's how you can solve it:

Step 1: Substitute x = 2 + โˆš3 into the equation. So, we need to find the value of (2 + โˆš3)^3 + 1/(2 + โˆš3)^3.

Step 2: Calculate (2 + โˆš3)^3. You can do this by expanding the cube of a binomial formula, which is (a + b)^3 = a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3. Here, a = 2 and b = โˆš3. So, (2 + โˆš3)^3 = 2^3 + 32^2โˆš3 + 32(โˆš3)^2 + (โˆš3)^3 = 8 + 12โˆš3 + 18 + 3โˆš3 = 26 + 15โˆš3.

Step 3: Calculate 1/(2 + โˆš3)^3. This is the reciprocal of (2 + โˆš3)^3. To simplify this, you can rationalize the denominator. The conjugate of 2 + โˆš3 is 2 - โˆš3. Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate: [1/(2 + โˆš3)] * [(2 - โˆš3)/(2 - โˆš3)]. This simplifies to (2 - โˆš3)/[(2)^2 - (โˆš3)^2] = (2 - โˆš3)/1 = 2 - โˆš3.

Step 4: Now, substitute these values back into the original equation. So, x^3 + 1/x^3 = (26 + 15โˆš3) + (2 - โˆš3) = 28 + 14โˆš3.

So, the value of x^3 + 1/x^3 when x = 2 + โˆš3 is 28 + 14โˆš3.
