how cn u say (d/a) is odd?? it may b a fraction...like suppose a is 3 and d is 5....ad is 15 which is odd...but d/a is 5/3...

ur prove is only for integral roots [3][3][3][4][4][4][9][4]
prove again when d/a is fraction

who told you that a=d and b=c ????

harsh jindal ·

solve for
a=d
b=c
from here u find x=-1 as one root and it will show that other roots can be imaginary

1)
according to given question
the equation can also be
x^{3}+2x^{2}+2x+1=0
it has one integral root and two imaginary roots
so most suitable answer is d

1(A)

Let roots be α, β, γ which are rational.
as ad is odd so a= odd ; d= odd

so αβγ = -(d/a) = odd
so α, β, γ are all odd.

now α+β+γ = odd = -(b/a) so , b is odd.
So sigma αβ = odd =(c/a) so, c is odd.

but bc = even (given)

and bc according to our soln. is odd x odd = odd no.

So the question is where we have gone wrong.
It's so due to our assumption that all roots are rational.
So ans. : (A)

Please verify.
