In summary, to prove the equation Gy^3+(y-G)^3 = 0, we need to expand the equation using the binomial theorem, combine like terms, factor out common factors, and finally show that the equation is only true when y = G.

Homework Statement



If x^2+x+G=0 and y=x+1/x , prove that Gy^3+(y-G)^3=0

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



Gy^3=x^5+3x^3+3x+1/x+x^4+3x^2+3+1/x^2

(y-G)^3=1/x^3+6/x+3+12x+12x^2+12x^4+6x^5+x^6

They are not equal.

Is this the correct way of doing ?

FAQ: Can You Prove Gy^3+(y-G)^3 Equals Zero Given x^2+x+G=0?

How do I prove Gy^3+(y-G)^3 = 0?

To prove this equation, we will use the properties of algebra and follow a step-by-step process to show that both sides of the equation are equal.

What is the first step in proving Gy^3+(y-G)^3 = 0?

The first step is to expand the equation using the binomial theorem, which will give us the following equation: Gy^3 + y^3 - 3y^2G + 3yG^2 - G^3 = 0.

How do I continue the proof after expanding the equation?

Next, we can combine like terms and simplify the equation to get 2y^3 - 3y^2G + 3yG^2 - G^3 = 0.

What is the next step in the proof?

The next step is to factor out a common factor of y^2 from the first two terms and G^2 from the last two terms, which will give us the following equation: y^2(2y - 3G) + G^2(3y - G) = 0.

How do I finish the proof?

Finally, we can see that both terms have a common factor of (y - G), so we can factor this out to get (y - G)(y^2 + G^2) = 0. Since (y^2 + G^2) cannot be equal to 0, the only way for this equation to be true is if (y - G) = 0. Therefore, we have proven that Gy^3+(y-G)^3 = 0 when y = G.
