Her's the question 

Find the value of B in the equation

b2 + 2 + 1/b2= 4 lipsrsealed
Re: All the Maths Lords In This Forum pleeaase I Need Ur Help On This Question!!!! by LearnBook: 5:18pm On Jun 18, 2009
Let x = b2,

So we have x + 1/x = 2 [ subtract 2 from both sides]

Multiply both sides by x, this will give x2 + 1 = 2x because x * 1/ x = 1

so we now have x2 - 2x + 1 = 0 [ subtract 2x from both sides]

This equation has a well known answer: (x-1)(x-1) = 0 [ check your algebra book]

So x = 1, which means b2 = 1, or b = 1

Check: 1 + 2 + 1/1 = 4
