p2 is divisible by 3
3q2 = (3m)2
3q2 = 9m2
q2 = 3m2
3 divides q2
3 divides q using A
q = 3n ..... (3)
2 & 3 3 divides both p and q which contradicts the fact that p and q are co-prime
Our assumption is false is an irrational number.
x2 - 3 is a factor of f(x)
Zero of (x) =
2(-5)2 + p(-5) - 15 = 0
50 - 5p - 15 = 0
-5p = -35
p = 7
p(x2 + x) + k
= 7(x2 + x) + k
= 7x2 + 7x + k
4k = 7
If
7a - 7b = 6a + 2b - 4
a - 9b = -4 ..... (3)
If
7a + 7b = 9a + 3b - 6
-2a + 4b = -6
a - 2b = 3 ....4
a = 4 + 9
a = 5
b2 - 4a c = 0
Or
2x2 + 2 = 17x - 34
2x2 - 17x + 36 = 0
2x2 - 9x - 8x + 36 = 0
x(2x - 9) - 4(2x - 9) = 0
(2x - 9) (x - 4) = 0
17. Three digit nos, divisible 5 leaving remainder 2 in each case are-
102 + (n - 1) 5 = 997
102 + 5n - 5 = 997
5n + 97 = 997
5n=997 - 97
5n = 900
