Nice Olympiad Math | x^2-x^3=12 | Nice Math Olympiad Solution

This mathematical challenge is an Olympiad question. In solving this Olympiad polynomial equation I will guide you on some unique steps and techniques to apply.
I will introduce to you two special algebraic identities that will give a short cut to solving this in a short period of time.

    ” X² ーX³ =12”  1st left  → X² ーX³ = X²(1ーX)     2nd right → 12=4×3= 4×(1+2) )= ( -2) ² ×(1ー ( -2) ) 3rd X= -2

    The last 2 lines on the first column had errors, the last, serendipitously 'correcting' the second to last. In the second to last you forgot to make the 2^3 positive inside the parenthesis. In the last you forgot to make (from the erroneous equation) the x^3 negative. So erroring twice the 'corrected' the equation on the last line. So just erase the second to last equation and your good! All is well that ends well. You passed the test, making 2 bad operations!!!!

  • @leylaaghazadeh9185

    Much appreciated. There' s also a simpler way to come up with the answer. If factoring out x^2 , then we have: x^2 (1-x)= 12 There would be just one possible choice left out of three positive pair factors of 12 that includes a perfect square. i.e. 4 and 3. So: x^2= 4 and (1-x)= 3 The only common answer of the above two equations is then: x=-2

    Honestly, knowing that x has to be negative is a dead giveaway, cos it can't be positive (cos subtracting a cubed number (bigger) from the same but squared (smaller) number yet still getting a positive result => x has to be negative), and we also know it's not "1". Hmm what number comes next?

    ... Good day sir, We could also solve the Complex part as follows: X^2 - 3X + 6 = 0 [ Applying Completing the Square ] ... (X - 3/2)^2 - 9/4 + 24/4 = 0 ... (X - 3/2)^2 = - 15/4 ... X - 3/2 = +/- SQRT(- 15/4) ... X - 3/2 = +/- SQRT((- 1)* 15/4) [ Applying i^2 = - 1 ] ... X - 3/2 = +/- SQRT(15/4 * i^2) ... X2.3 = 3/2 +/- SQRT(15) * i / 2 ... X2 = (3 + SQRT(15) * i) /2 v X3 = (3 - SQRT(15) * i) / 2 ... X2 and X3 are COMPLEX CONJUGATE SOLUTIONS, but are certainly NOT IMAGINARY SOLUTIONS, because in general Z = A + B * i is always COMPLEX, and when A = 0, then Z = B * i is both COMPLEX as IMAGINARY! In short : The set of Imaginary numbers (Z = B * i) is a SUBSET of the set of Complex numbers (Z = A + B * i ) ... great presentation by the way sir, and thanking you for your instructive math efforts ... best regards, Jan-W

    Nice. I would use a formal method to solve this problem: 1) observe -2 is a real root. 2) divide x^3-x^2+12 by x+2, the quotient then is Q(x)=x^2-3x+6, now it's quite easy to find other two complex roots of Q(x)=0.

    Yes, my self, I'd always do that way because, in f(x)=0 where f(x) of power of 3 (let's denote it with f3(x)) must be in f1(x)*f2(x) to be solved. If the second f2(x) is factorized to f1(x)*f1(x), then 3 solutions all real right away. If not, f2(x) gives 2 solutions from the formula, either real or imaginary. That way we don't need x**3 +/- y**3 = (x +/- y)(x**2...) formula. The question is how fast you find the number for the f1(x) i.e. (x - ?). Typically the number is small, 1, 2, 3 or -1, -2, -3. Seldom odd case such as -7. I want to think of a systematic way to come up with this number, rather than applying try-and-hit way...

    I'm a senior, ill in bed with flu and did this in less than a minute in my head - it's obvious from the equation that either x must be negative then you just need to fins a number that when it's square is added to it's cube yields 12 ( the fact it is negative means that minus the cube of it will become positive) is it not obvious that the number is 2? since 4 + 8 = 12. This is the third 'Olympiad' math question I've looked at this afternoon, being too unwell to do much else and all were easily do-able in my head rather than the long-winded solutions. I recently took a senior cognitive test (annual requirement at my age) and am amazed if this is how students are taught to solve these kind of puzlzles. Maybe I should start a "Granny shows you how" you tube series? 😆 Well I have learned something, I know I am not as quick-witted as I was 50 years ago, but I still have some of my marbles 😊

    With due respect Sir, Just by seeing the equation we can find the answer.. or hit and trial method can also be used.. Of course we will not be able to find complex answers mentally, but they are as it is rejected for the solution unless asked for in the exam. Thank you for sharing this video. Regards 🙏🙏

    You must be Indian. Trial and error method is not real Mathematics. But you guys don't study or care about real Mathematics, nor appreciate it's beauty. To you, finding the answer faster than the other guy in an exam by any means possible is Maths. Higher score is victory. It is not methodical or exhaustive, it's just trick play. Like the difference between a cheap thrill seasonal action film and a timeless classic.

    ​@@daakudaddy5453The method discussed in the video is also nit methodical, in the sense that it would only work for this cases. I guess the most reliable is the cubic formula here or numerical methods, everything else is tricks play. What's the point on insulting every student here when most of them are not even responsible for it? Besides, your criticism of students not being exposed to the beauty of math isn't only common in india but everywhere.

    x² - x³ = 12 Let's see, a square and a cube that add/subtract to 12? Well 2 would work if it were a sum, not a difference: 4 + 8 = 12. But wait, we can make that happen just by changing the sign on the 2. x = -2 x² - x³ = (-2)² - (-2)³ = 4 + 8 = 12 Having found a root, the next step is to factor it out and solve the resulting quadratic. x³ - x² + 12 = (x + 2)(x² - 3x + 6) = 0 x = -2 or x² - 3x + 6 = 0 x = 3/2 ± ½i√15 So if you're looking for real solutions, x = -2 is the only one.

    it's easily proofed, that one obvious solution is x= - 2 alternative solution 1: divide x³ -- x² + 12 by x+2 with the so called long division (polynomial division) to find the polynomial of degree 2. solve this quadratic equation to receive two complex solution if needed. alternativ 2: x³ -- x² + 12 = ( x +2)(x² + ax + 6). find the parameter a by multplication, and comparing both sides.

    Felicitaciones por el formidable desarrollo analitico. Sin embargo la solución (x=-2) adviene simplemente por tanteo una vez que te percatas de que DEBE ser un número negativo. Y el proceso mental para hallarla no lleva ni un minuto, sin necesidad de ser una especie de Ramanujan, ni tener un infinitesimo de su talento, por asi hablar

    These type of problems in exams, usually have a simple solution that by simple looking can be obtained (for example (-2) is obviously a solution of the problem). Then you can divide the equation by x+2 and easily solve the obtained second order equation for other two roots.

    Some comments suggests, that x=-2 could be found within 10 seconds. And indeed, x=-2 is an obvious answer. But how to prove, that it is the only answer? We all know, that "x^2=4" has not only one answer. He broke the equation down to two: x+2=0 --> first solution 3x-6=x^2 --> potential alternative solution(s) Therefore the remaining question had been, if the second equation can be solved. Or not. And he listed correctly both complex conjugates --- even x2 and x3 are awkward. Well done.

    I think the long way to solve the simple problem like this is not suitable any more. This method makes many many students confused and scared of math.This problem , we don't need to move number 12 to the left to make the equation =0.Simply we do: We keep the left, and change the right to 2 with the exponent 2 plus 2 with the exponent 3.So we have the exact formular for both side. Then we do math on the left side we will have -X = 2 (on the right side). It means X = -2. Two steps only.

    No entiendo porque tantos comentarios negativos. Es cierto que el problema es sencillo para ser de una olimpiada de matemáticas pero nunca dijo de qué nivel es... Además la solución es correcta y hay varias formas de llegar a ella. "Intuir" que -2 es una solución y luego factorizar es fácil pero, para mi, tiene más logro llegar a esa conclusión por una vía matemática. Y en las olimpiadas eso se valora.

    X^2 - X^3 = 12 X^2(1-x) = 2^2*(1-(-2)) , or X^2(1-x) =(-2)^2*(1-(-2)) If we compare left and right sides of equations, It is obvious, that true version of equation is X^2(1-x) = (-2)^2*(1-(-2)) That is x = -2

  • @guitarbap

    I think this way : 1. X must be negative, because if X positive, X^2 X^2 - X^3 never equals 12. 2. Negative but range ? X should be from 0 to -3 (I only consider integer), because -X^3 must 3. Make a try with integer and easily find X = -2. Base on this to form the other equation to find another 2 X.
