MCQ
If $\text{x}=\frac{2}{3+\sqrt7},$ then (x - 3)2=
  • A
    1
  • B
    3
  • C
    6
  • D
    7

Answer

  1. 7
    Solution:
    $\text{x}=\frac{2}{3+\sqrt7}=\frac{2}{3+\sqrt7}\times\frac{3-\sqrt7}{3-\sqrt7}=\frac{2(3-\sqrt7)}{3-\sqrt7}\\ \ =\frac{6-2\sqrt7}{9-7}=\frac{6-2\sqrt7}{2}=3-2\sqrt7$
    Now $(\text{x}-3)^2=(\not3-\sqrt7-\not3)^2=\big(-\sqrt7\big)^2=7$
    Hence, correct option is (d).
