If \(\alpha, \beta\) and \(\gamma\) are the roots of the equation \(x^3+p x^2+q x+r=0\), then the coefficient of \(x\) in the cubic equation whose roots are \(\alpha(\beta+\gamma), \beta(\gamma+\alpha)\) and \(\gamma(\alpha+\beta)\) is

  1. A \(2 q\)
  2. B \(q^2+p r\)
  3. C \(p^2-q r\)
  4. D \(r(p q-r)\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(q^2+p r\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since, \(\alpha, \beta\) and \(\gamma\) are the roots of \(f(x)=x^3+p x^2+q x+r=0\). \(\therefore \quad \alpha+\beta+\gamma=-p, \quad \alpha \beta+\beta \gamma+\gamma \alpha=q\) and \(\alpha \beta \gamma=-r\) Let…
