The condition that the roots of \(x^3-b x^2+c x-d=0\) are in arithmetic progression is

  1. A \(9 c b=2 b^3+27 d\)
  2. B \(9 c b=2 d^3+27 b\)
  3. C \(9 c d=2 d^3+27 b\)
  4. D \(9 c d=2 b^3+27 d\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(9 c b=2 b^3+27 d\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let roots in A.P. be as \(\alpha-r, \alpha, \alpha+r\) Sum of roots \(=b\) \(\Rightarrow \alpha-r+\alpha+\alpha+r=b \Rightarrow \alpha=\frac{b}{3}\) \(\alpha\) is root of \(x^3-b x^2+c x-d=0\)…
