Let α,β:α>β, be the roots of the equation x2-2x-3=0. Let Pn=αn-βn, n∈N. Then (113-102)P10+(112+10)P11-11P12 is equal to [2024]
(3)
We have, x2-2x-3=0 has two roots α and β
So for Sn=αn≠βn, by Newton's theorem, we have Sn+2-2Sn+1-3Sn=0
⇒(αn+2-βn+2)-2(αn+1-βn+1)-3(αn-βn)=0
⇒Pn+2-2Pn+1-3Pn=0 [∵Pn=αn-βn]
For n=9, we have
P12-2P11-3P10=0 ...(i)
⇒P12=2P11+3P10
P11-2P10-3P9=0
⇒P11=2P10+3P9
So, (113-102)P10+(112+10)P11-11P12
=(113-102)P10+(112+10)(2P10+3P9)-11(2P11+3P10)
=113P10-102P10+22P10+102P10-113P10+116P9+103P9-112(2P10+3P9)
=22P10+116P9+103P9-22P10-116P9=103P9
