passes through (0, 2α)
Thus given equation of curve reduces to y = x2 + bx + c
Now it passes through A & B

&

On solving we get α = 1, b = –3,

The curve is

43) N = a (111111) is divisible by 7 × 11 × 3

Hence for N to be a divisible by 924, a = 4 or 8 and a and β are roots of x2 –11x + λ = 0

⇒ possible value of λ = 28, 24

⇒ product of λ = 672

44) A.M = G.M

46)

In given equation

47) Given

Now quadratic equation having roots α & β will be

i.e , put x = α and put x = β
So
(i)

So,

= 29 – 11 = 18

48) n = 2018.
Note that degree of P0(x) = 2018

Degree of is 2017
similarly degree of is 2018-K
The least value of n for which
