Question 35

Mathematics Linear and Quadratic Equations Hard

Let&nbsp;&alpha;,&nbsp;&beta; be the roots of the equation x<sup>2</sup> - px + r = 0 and&nbsp;<span class="math-tex">\(\dfrac{\alpha}{2}, 2\beta \)</span>&nbsp;be the roots of the equation x<sup>2</sup> - qx + r = 0. Then the value of r is

(A) <span class="math-tex">\(\dfrac{2}{9}(p-q)(2q-p)\)</span>
(B) <span class="math-tex">\(\dfrac{2}{9}(q-p)(2q-p)\)</span>
