MCQ 11 Mark

The roots of the quadratic equation $2 x^2-x-6=0$ are

A
$-2, \frac{3}{2}$
✓
$2,-\frac{3}{2}$
C
$-2,-\frac{3}{2}$
D
$2, \frac{3}{2}$

Answer

Correct option: B.

$2,-\frac{3}{2}$

Using factorization method of splitting the middle term, we can solve the quadratic equation as follows:
$2 x^2-x-6=0$
$\Rightarrow 2 x^2-4 x+3 x-6=0$
$\Rightarrow\left(2 x^2-4 x\right)+(3 x-6)=0$
$\Rightarrow 2 x(x-2)+3(x-2)=0$
$\Rightarrow(x-2)(2 x+3)=0$
$\Rightarrow x-2=0 \text { or } 2 x+3=0$
$\Rightarrow x=2 \text { or } x=-\frac{3}{2}$
Option $(b)$ is correct.

MCQ 21 Mark

The roots of the equation $x^2+x-p(p+1)=0$ where $p$ is a constant, are

A
$p, p+1$
B
$-p, p+1$
✓
$p,-(p+1)$
D
$-p,-(p+1)$

Answer

Correct option: C.

$p,-(p+1)$

We have, $x^2+x-p(p+1)=0$
$\Rightarrow x^2+(p+1-p) x-p(p+1)=0$
$\Rightarrow x^2+(p+1) x-p x-p(p+1)=0$
$\Rightarrow x(x+p+1)-p(x+p+1)=0$
$\Rightarrow(x+p+1)(x-p)=0$
$\Rightarrow(x+p+1)=0 \text { or }(x-p)=0$
$\Rightarrow x=-(p+1) \text { or } x=p$
The roots of the given quadratic equation are $p$ and $-(p+1)$.
Hence, the correct option is $(c).$
