If α and β are the roots of the equation x 2 + p x + 2 = 0 and 1 α and 1 β are the roots…

If α and β are the roots of the equation x2+px+2=0 and 1α and 1β are the roots of the equation 2x2+2qx+1=0, then α-1αβ-1βα+1ββ+1α is equal to :
  1. 949+q2
  2. 949-q2
  3. 949+p2
  4. 949-p2

Solution

α, β are roots of x2+px+2=0

α+β=-p, αβ=2

1α,1β are roots of  2x2+2qx+1=0 

 α, β are roots of x2+2qx+2=0

 α+β=-2q, αβ=2

p=2q  ...(i)

α-1αβ-1βα+1ββ+1α=αβ-αβ-βα+1αβ·αβ+1αβ+2

2-α+β2-2αβαβ+12·2+12+2

52-p2-42·92=949-p2 or, 949-4q2
