JEE Advanced Mathematics question
If the roots of the equation are and those of are then the positive value of is ( and being distinct numbers)
Answer: 1210
Solution
From the root–coefficient relations:
a + b = 10c, ab = -11d, c + d = 10a, cd = -11b.
So ; we need .
Since is a root of the first equation and of the second:
- 10ca - 11d = 0, - 10ac - 11b = 0.
Subtract: . From the sums, $b =
