Question
If  the two equations x2cx+d=0 and x2ax+b=0 have one common root and the second has equal roots, then 2(b+d)=)
Options:
A .  0
B .  a+c
C .  ac
D .  -ac
Answer: Option C
:
C
Let roots of x2cx+d=0 beα,β then roots of x2ax+b=0 beα,α
∴α +β = c,αβ = d,α +α =α, α2 = b
Hence 2(b+d)=2(α2+αβ)=2α(α+β)=ac
