When $$a = 2025$$, the numerical value of $$|2a^3-3a^2-2a+1| - |2a^3-3a^2-3a-2025|$$ is ------.
Correct Answer: 4051
$$|2a^3-3a^2-2a+1| - |2a^3-3a^2-3a-2025|$$
or, $$|2a^3-3a^2-2a+1| - |2a^3-3a^2-3a-a|$$
or, $$|2a^3-3a^2-2a+1| - |2a^3-3a^2-4a|$$
Let us assume that $$t=2a^3-3a^2-2a$$
or, $$t=a(2a^2-3a-2)$$
or, $$t=a(2a+1)(a-2)$$
or, $$t=(2a+1)(a)(a-2)$$
Since, $$a=2025$$, we will get $$t>2a$$
Now, we have: $$|2a^3-3a^2-2a+1| - |2a^3-3a^2-4a|$$
Substituting value of $$t$$, we get:
$$|t+1|-|t-2a|$$
Since both of the quantities inside the modulus are positive
So, we get:
$$t+1-t+2a$$
$$=2a+1=4051$$
