find the value of a / b + b / a , if a and b are the roots of the quadratic equation x 2 + 8 x + 4 = 0 ?
"a / b + b / a = ( a 2 ] / ab a + b = + b 2 ) / ab = ( a 2 + b 2 + a + b ) / ab = [ ( a + b ) 2 - 2 ab - 8 / 1 = - 8 ab = 4 / 1 = 4 hence a / b + b / a = [ ( - 8 ) 2 - 2 ( 4 ) ] / 4 = 56 / 4 = 14 . answer : b"
subtract(divide(power(negate(8), 2), 4), 2)
