If the pair of lines represented by 3 x^2-5 x y+P y^2=0 and 6 x^2-x y-5 y^2=0 have one line in common, then the sum of all possible values of P is
Options
- A33 4
- B17 4
- C- 33 4
- D- 17 4
Correct answer
D. - 17 4
Step-by-step solution
6 x^2-x y-5 y^2=0 (6 x+5 y)(x-y)=0 y=x or y= -6 x 5 When y=x, 3 x^2-5 x^2+P x^2=0 P=2 When y=- 6 x 5 ; 3 x^2-5 x ( -6 x 5 )+ 36 x^2 25 P=0 9+ 36 P 25 =0 P= -25 4 ; Sum of values of P=2- 25 4 = -17 4 .
