Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(35\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the roots of equation \(x^4+x^3-4 x^2+x+1=0\) are diminished by \(h\), so the equation becomes \((x+h)^4+(x+h)^3-4(x+h)^2+(x+h)+1=0\) Now the coefficient of \(x^2\) is \(6 h^2+3 h-4\) must be zero \(\therefore \quad 6 h^2+3 h-4=0\) having roots \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) So,…
