  1. A \(3\)
  2. B \(129\)
  3. C \(68\)
  4. D \(192\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(68\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\alpha+\beta+\gamma=-2 ; \alpha \beta+\beta \gamma+\gamma \alpha=-1 ; \alpha \beta \gamma=2\) \(\begin{aligned} & x^3+2 x^2-x-2=0 \\ & \Rightarrow(x+1)(x-1)(x+2)=0 \\ & \therefore x=1,-1,-2 \\ & \alpha^6+\beta^6+\gamma^6=(1)^6+(-1)^6+(-2)^6=66\end{aligned}\)
