Question

Sum of the non – real roots of 

 

Solution

Correct option is

– 1

Put x2 + x = y [See 2.16 in Theory], so that the equation (1) becomes

     (y – 2) (y – 3) = 12

⇒  y2 – 5y – 6 = 0

⇒ (y – 6) (y + 1) = 0 ⇒ y = 6, – 1.

When y = 6 we get x2 + x – 6 = 0

⇒ (x + 3) (x – 2) = 0 or  x = – 3, 2

When y = – 1, we get x2 + x + 1 = 0

⇒       x = ww2 and their sum is – 1.
