Options

  1. A1 2 and 2
  2. B1 2 , 2, 1 4 ,-2
  3. C1 2 , 2,3,4
  4. D1 2 , 2, 3 4 ,-2

Correct answer

A. 1 2 and 2

Step-by-step solution

Given equation can be reduced to a quadratic equation. 2 x^2+x-11+ 1 x + 2 x^2 =0 2 (x^2+ 1 x^2 )+ (x+ 1 x )-11=0 Put x+ 1 x =y2 (y^2-2 )+y-11=0 2 y^2+y-15=0 y=-3 and 5 2 x+ 1 x =-3, x+ 1 x = 5 2 x^2+3 x+1=0,2 x^2-5 x+2=0 Only 2nd equation has rational roots as D =9 and roots are 1 2 and 2 .
