Answer:
x^4 + 1/x^4 = 195
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 1/x = 5
Square on LHS and RHS
(x + 1/x)^2 = 5^2
x^2 + 1/x^2 + 2(x + 1/x) = 25
x^2 + 1/x^2 + 2(5) = 25
x^2 + 1/x^2 + 10 = 25
x^2 + 1/x^2 = 15
Square on LHS and RHS
(x^2 + 1/x^2)^2 = 15^2
x^4 + 1/x^4 + 2(x^2 + 1/x^2) = 225
x^4 + 1/x^4 + 2(15) = 225
x^4 + 1/x^4 + 30 = 225
x^4 + 1/x^4 = 195
