@ScareCrow28 said:Sirjee... It's not necessary that 2x+y be = 0 ..If p=0 then (2x+y) need not be 0Then we only get y=-2If we put y=-2 in option (4) ..We get real values of "x"Likewise..if we put..r=0..then we only get (2x+y)=0..From there also we get real valuesSo, why not option 4?? I guess the question should have given" p, q, and r are non-zero numbers in AP" ??
p,q,r is in ap so 2q=p+r
p-2y+r=0
comapring it wid px+qy+r=0 ,we get x=1 y=-2
eqn 2 satisfy it
p.s. can be solved if we assume p,q,r to be any terms in ap...(provided lucky enuf to get only one eqn satisfying :P)

the required sum is 2 + 9 + 10 + 11 = 32

Please read my post carefully 😃 p or r can be 0

bypassed dat...thinking we need a ap or am i doing some blunder 

@sujamait said:the required sum is 2 + 9 + 10 + 11 = 32
BUt what's the mthod?? how to find out that only these values find?? i could find out that 2 will satisfy.. but how to find out the rest
@lopagargg said:bypassed dat...thinking we need a ap or am i doing some blunder
No blunder..Its just that question needs to provide that p, q and r are non-zero numbers.. At least that is what i think :P

19x-2
from 1st inequality___(x-9)(x-2)>=0 __=> x>=9 or x
from 2nd inequality___(x-11)(x-2) 2
Hence x=2,9,10,11 satisfy

Given inequality is 19x − 2 ≤ (x + 4)^2 ≤ 21x − 6
Consider 19x − 2 ≤ (x + 4)^2
19x − 2 ≤ x^2 + 8x + 16
x^2 − 11x + 18 ≥ 0
(x − 2)(x − 9) ≥ 0
Hence, x ∈ (-∞, 2] ∪ [9, ∞) … (i)
Consider (x + 4)2 ≤ 21x − 6
x2 − 13x + 22 ≤ 0
(x − 2)(x − 11) ≤ 0
Hence, x ∈ [2, 11] … (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we have
x = 2 or x ∈ [9, 11]
Hence the possible values of x are 2, 9, 10 and 11.
Thus, the required sum is 2 + 9 + 10 + 11 = 32
Hence, option 1.

i assumed that as it has to be ap...but any way we can solve this by assuming values or using general terms of ap p=a-b,q=a,r=a+b...would gv it a try
@amresh_maverick said:@Brooklyn take two eq at a time19x-2 (x+4)^2 solve them
i waas doing simultaneously :banghead:
