AP EAMCET · Maths · Quadratic Equation
The equations \(x^2-a x+b=0\) and \(x^2+b x-a=0\) have a common root, then
- A \(a=b\)
- B \(a+b=1\)
- C \(a+b=0\) or \(a-b=1\)
- D \(a-b=2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(a+b=0\) or \(a-b=1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Equation \(x^2-a x+b\) and \(x^2+b x-a\) have a common root. Let \(\alpha\) be the common root of both quadratic equations \[ \Rightarrow \quad \begin{aligned} & \alpha^2-a \alpha+b=0 \\ & \alpha^2+b \alpha-a=0 \end{aligned} \] Using cross-multiplication…
