The sum of the complex roots of the equations (x1)3+64=0 is 


A) 6

B) 3

C) 6i

D) 3i

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

We have,

  (x1)3+64=0 

            (x1)3=64           

                 (x1)3=(4)3

         x-1=-4,-4w,-4w2

                  x=-3,-4w+1,-4w2+1

 Complex roots of the equations are

  -4w+1,-4w2+1

Sum of complex roots are

   -4w+1-4w2+1=-4(w+w2)+2

  =4(1)+2=4+2=6    [1+w+w2=0]
