G.C.E. (A.L.) Examination – Combined Mathematics I - August 2000 QuestionNo 1(a) (Model Solutions) … Scholastic home.video.tutor @gmail.com • Substituting the value of p= (a + b)in the above equation (3) and the value of q = ab in the above equation (4) . • We can obtain x2 – p2x+ qp2 = 0, whose roots are a(a + b) හා b(a + b).
G.C.E. (A.L.) Examination – Combined Mathematics I - August 2000 QuestionNo 1(b) Scholastic home.video.tutor @gmail.com (b) In order for the function f(x,y) = 2x2 + lxy + 3y2 - 5y - 2to be written as a product of two linear factors, find the values of l.
G.C.E. (A.L.) Examination – Combined Mathematics I - August 2000 Question No 1(b) (Model Solutions) Scholastic home.video.tutor @gmail.com • L.S.= 2x2 + lxy + 3y2 - 5y - 2 • R.S.= (ax + by + c)(lx + my + n) • Substituting x = 0 in L.S. and R.S. • 3y2 - 5y - 2 = (by + c)(my + n) • (3y + 1)(y - 2) = (by + c)(my + n) • Therefore b=3, c=1, m=1, n=-2 • Substituting y = 0 in L.S. and R.S. • 2x2 – 2 = (ax + c)(lx + n) • 2x2 – 2 = alx2 +(an + cl)x + cn
G.C.E. (A.L.) Examination – Combined Mathematics I - August 2000 QuestionNo 1(b) (Model Solutions) … Scholastic home.video.tutor @gmail.com • Comparing above coefficients of L.S and R.S. • 2=al, 0=an+cl, and-2=cn • Substitute c=1, n = -2 in 0=an+cl • 0=an+cl = a(-2)+1(l)=>l=2a • Substitute l=2a in2=al • 2=a(2a) => and • L.S. = 2x2 + lxy + 3y2 - 5y - 2 • R.S.= (ax + by + c)(lx + my + n)
G.C.E. (A.L.) Examination – Combined Mathematics I - August 2000 Question No 1(b) (Model Solutions) … Scholastic home.video.tutor @gmail.com • Comparing the coefficients of L.S and R.S. • l=am+bl • Substituting m=1,and in above equation • Therefore
