Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 3

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, \(\alpha, \beta, \gamma\) are roots of \(3 x^3-9 x^2+5 x-7=0\) \[ \begin{aligned} \therefore \quad \alpha+\beta+\gamma & =-\frac{b}{a} \\ & =\frac{-(-9)}{3} \\ \alpha+\beta+\gamma & =3 \end{aligned} \quad\left[\begin{array}{l} \because a=3 \\ b=-9 \end{array}\right] \]…
