Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\frac{\alpha}{\alpha+1}, \frac{\beta}{\beta+1}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(a \left(\frac{x}{x-1}\right)^2 - b \left(\frac{x}{x-1}\right) + c = 0\) Let \(y = \frac{x}{x-1}\). \(a y^2 - b y + c = 0\) If \( \alpha, \beta \) are roots of \(a X^2 + b X + c = 0\), then \( -\alpha, -\beta \) are roots of \(a y^2 - b y + c = 0\).…
