Let λ≠0\lambda \ne 0 be a real number. Let α,β\alpha, \beta be the roots of the equation 14x2−31x+3λ=014{x}^{2} - 31x + 3\lambda = 0 and α,γ\alpha, \gamma be the roots of the equation 35x2−53x+4λ=035{x}^{2} - 53x + 4\lambda = 0.

Options

  1. A7x2+245x−250=07{x}^{2} + 245x - 250 = 0
  2. B7x2−245x+250=07{x}^{2} - 245x + 250 = 0
  3. C49x2−245x+250=049{x}^{2} - 245x + 250 = 0
  4. D49x2+245x+250=049{x}^{2} + 245x + 250 = 0

Correct answer

C. 49x2−245x+250=049{x}^{2} - 245x + 250 = 0

Step-by-step solution

Given α\alpha and β\beta are roots of the below equation

14x2−31x+3λ=014{x}^{2} - 31x + 3\lambda = 0

So, α+β=3114…(1)\alpha + \beta = \dfrac{31}{14} \ldots \left(1\right)

And, αβ=3λ14…(2)\alpha\beta = \dfrac{3\lambda}{14} \ldots \left(2\right)

Given α\alpha and γ\gamma are roots of the below equation

35x2−53x+4λ=035{x}^{2} - 53x + 4\lambda = 0

So, α+γ=5335…(3)\alpha + \gamma = \dfrac{53}{35} \ldots \left(3\right)

And, αγ=4λ35…(4)\alpha\gamma = \dfrac{4\lambda}{35} \ldots \left(4\right)

On dividing equation\left(2\right)andequation(4)and equation \left(4\right),

βγ=3×354×14=158⇒β=158γ\dfrac{\beta}{\gamma} = \dfrac{3 \times 35}{4 \times 14} = \dfrac{15}{8} ⇒ \beta = \dfrac{15}{8}\gamma

On subtracting equation \left(1\right)andequation(3)and equation \left(3\right),

⇒β−γ=3114−5335=155−10670=710⇒ \beta - \gamma = \dfrac{31}{14} - \dfrac{53}{35} = \dfrac{155 - 106}{70} = \dfrac{7}{10}

⇒158γ−γ=710⇒γ=45⇒ \dfrac{15}{8}\gamma - \gamma = \dfrac{7}{10} ⇒ \gamma = \dfrac{4}{5}

⇒β=158×45=32⇒ \beta = \dfrac{15}{8} \times \dfrac{4}{5} = \dfrac{3}{2}

So, α=3114−β=3114−32=57\alpha = \dfrac{31}{14} - \beta = \dfrac{31}{14} - \dfrac{3}{2} = \dfrac{5}{7}

And λ=143αβ=143×57×32=5\lambda = \dfrac{14}{3}\alpha\beta = \dfrac{14}{3} \times \dfrac{5}{7} \times \dfrac{3}{2} = 5

So, the sum of the roots of the required equation,

3αβ+4αγ=(3αγ+4αββγ)\dfrac{3\alpha}{\beta} + \dfrac{4\alpha}{\gamma} = \left(\dfrac{3\alpha\gamma + 4\alpha\beta}{\beta\gamma}\right)

=(3×4λ35+4×3λ14)βγ=12λ(14+35)14×35βγ= \dfrac{\left(3 \times \dfrac{4\lambda}{35} + 4 \times \dfrac{3\lambda}{14}\right)}{\beta\gamma} = \dfrac{12\lambda\left(14 + 35\right)}{14 \times 35\beta\gamma}

=49×12×5490×32×45=5= \dfrac{49 \times 12 \times 5}{490 \times \dfrac{3}{2} \times \dfrac{4}{5}} = 5

And the product of the roots of the required equation,
=3αβ×4αγ=12α2βγ=12×254932×45=25049= \dfrac{3\alpha}{\beta} \times \dfrac{4\alpha}{\gamma} = \dfrac{12{\alpha}^{2}}{\beta\gamma} = \dfrac{12 \times \dfrac{25}{49}}{\dfrac{3}{2} \times \dfrac{4}{5}} = \dfrac{250}{49}

So, the required equation is

x2−(sum of roots)x+product of roots=0{x}^{2} - ( \text{sum of roots} ) x + \text{product of roots} = 0

⇒x2−5x+25049=0⇒ {x}^{2} - 5x + \dfrac{250}{49} = 0

⇒49x2−245x+250=0⇒ 49{x}^{2} - 245x + 250 = 0
