Let \(\alpha ,\beta\) be the roots of the equation \({x}^{2}-3x+r=0\), and, \(\frac{\alpha }{2},2\beta\) be the roots of the equation \({x}^{2}+3x+r=0\). If the roots of the equation \({x}^{2}+6x=m\) are \(2\alpha +\beta +2r\) and \(\alpha -2\beta -\frac{r}{2}\), then \(m\) is equal to:

a

\(-135\)

b

\(-567\)

c

\(135\)

d

\(567\)

✓ Correct answer: d)

\(567\)

Explanation

\( \alpha+\beta=3 \)
\( \frac{\alpha}{2}+2 \beta=-3\)

On solving, we get:

\(\alpha=6 ; \beta=-3\)
Product of roots \(=\alpha \beta=r \Rightarrow r=-18\)
Now, for \(\mathrm{x}^2+6 \mathrm{x}-\mathrm{m}=0\)
Product of roots \(=-m\)

\( =(2 \alpha+\beta+2 \mathrm{r})\left(\alpha-2 \beta-\frac{\mathrm{r}}{2}\right) \)
\( \Rightarrow-\mathrm{m}=(-27)(21) \)
\( \Rightarrow \mathrm{m}=567\)
