JEE Advance - Mathematics (2008 - Paper 2 Offline - No. 18)
and STATEMENT - 2 : $$b \ne pa$$ or $$c \ne qa$$
STATEMENT - 2 is a correct explanation for
STATEMENT - 1
STATEMENT - 2 is NOT a correct explanation for
STATEMENT - 1
Explanation
As a, b, c, p, q $$\in$$ R and the two given equations have exactly one common root.
$$\Rightarrow$$ Either both equations have real roots.
Or both equations have imaginary roots.
$$\Rightarrow$$ Either $$\Delta_1\ge0$$ and $$\Delta_2 > 0$$ or
$$\Delta_1 < 0$$ and $$\Delta_2 < 0$$
$$\Rightarrow~p^2-q\ge0$$ and $$b^2-ac\ge0$$
or $$p^2-q\le0$$ and $$b^2-ac\le0$$
$$\Rightarrow~(p^2-q)(b^2-ac)\ge0$$
$$\therefore$$ Statement 1 is true.
Also, we have $$\alpha\beta=q$$ and $${\alpha \over \beta } = {c \over a}$$
$$\therefore$$ $${{\alpha \beta } \over {{\alpha \over \beta }}} = {q \over c} \times a \Rightarrow {\beta ^2} = {{qa} \over c}$$
As $$\beta \ne 1$$ or $$-1$$
$$ \Rightarrow {\beta ^2} \ne 1$$
$$ \Rightarrow {{qa} \over c} \ne 1$$ or $$c \ne qa$$
Again as exactly one root $$\alpha$$ is common and $$\beta\ne1$$
$$\therefore$$ $$\alpha + \beta \ne \alpha + {1 \over \beta } \Rightarrow {{ - 2b} \over a} \ne - 2P$$
$$ \Rightarrow b \ne ap$$
$$\therefore$$ Statement 2 is correct.
But Statement 2 is not correct explanation of Statement 1.
