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

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(r-p q\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \[ x^3+p x^2+q x+r=0 \] \(\alpha, \beta, \gamma\) are roots of equation \[ \begin{aligned} \therefore \quad \alpha+\beta+\gamma & =-p \\ \alpha \beta+\beta \gamma+\alpha \gamma & =q \\ \alpha \beta \gamma & =-r \end{aligned} \] Now,…
