If at least one root of \( \Large 2x^{2}+3x+5=0 \) and \( \Large ax^{2}+bx+c=0 \), a, b, c, belongs to N is common, then the maximum value of a + b + c is:
A) 10
B) 0
C) does not exist
D) none of these
Correct answer:
C) does not exist
Description for Correct answer:
Roots of the equation \( \Large 2x^{2}+3x+5=0 \)
\( \Large x = \frac{-3\pm \sqrt{9-40}}{6} \)( imaginary roots).
Hence, both roots coincide, so on comparing
\( \Large \frac{a}{2}=\frac{b}{3}=\frac{c}{5}=K \)
=> \( \Large a=2K,\ b=3K,\ c=5K \)
=> \( \Large a+b+c = 10K \)
So, maximum value does not exist.
