Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 9. (d)

Solution:

  1. PLAN To make the quadratic into simple form we should eliminate radical sign.

Description of Situation As for given equation, when a0 the equation reduces to identity in x.

i.e. ax2+bx+c=0,xR or a=b=c0

Thus, first we should make above equation independent from coefficients as 0 .

Let a+1=t6. Thus, when a0,t1.

(t21)x2+(t31)x+(t1)=0(t1)(t+1)x2+(t2+t+1)x+1=0, as t12x2+3x+1=02x2+2x+x+1=0(2x+1)(x+1)=0 Thus, x=1,1/2

or lima0+α(a)=1/2

and lima0+β(a)=1
