Respuesta :
The value of p if the pair of equations may have one root common is 1.
What are the roots of the equation?
Let the equation be ax² + bx + c = 0.
Then the roots of the equation will be
[tex]\rm x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4 a c }}{2a}[/tex]
The equations are given below.
2x² + px - 1 = 0 and 3x² - 2x - 5 = 0
The roots of the equation 3x² - 2x - 5 = 0 will be
3x² - 5x + 3x - 5 = 0
(3x - 5)(x + 1) = 0
x = -1, 5/3
At x = -1, the value of p will be
2(-1)² + p(-1) - 1 = 0
2 - p - 1 = 0
p = 1
The value of p if the pair of equations may have one root common is 1.
