Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 6

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \(\frac{2}{3} x^2+\frac{\alpha}{3} x y+y^2=(y-m x)\left(y-m^{\prime} x\right)\) and \(\frac{2^{\mathrm{I}}}{-3} x^2+\frac{\beta}{-3} x y+y^2=\left(y+\frac{1}{m} x\right)\left(y-m^{\prime} x\right)\) Then, \(m+m^{\prime}=-\frac{\alpha}{3}, m m^{\prime}=\frac{2}{3}\)…
