A binary operation ∆ is defined on the set of real numbers R, by x∆y = x+y−xy4−−−−−−−−−√ , where x, yER. Find the value of 4∆3

A binary operation ∆ is defined on the set of real numbers R, by x∆y = x+y−xy4−−−−−−−−−√
, where x, yER. Find the value of 4∆3

Answer Details

x∆y = x+y−xy4−−−−−−−−−√

4∆3 = 4+3−4∗34−−−−−−−−−√ $\sqrt{4+3-\frac{4\ast 3}{4}}$ 

= 4+3−3−−−−−−−−√ $\sqrt{4+3-3}$

= 4–√ $\sqrt{4}$

= 2.
