Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(x^2+a x+b\) have \((x-2)\) as factor \(\begin{array}{r} \therefore \quad(2)^2+2 a+b=0 \\ 2 a+b=4 ...(i) \end{array}\) Similarly, \(x^2+c x+d=0\) \(\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow(2)^2+2 c+d=0 \\ & \Rightarrow 2 c+d=-4... (ii) \end{aligned}\) (i) - (ii)…
