The sum of the squares of the roots of |x-2|2 + |x-2| - 2 = 0 and the squares of the roots of x2 - 2|x-3| - 5 = 0, is

  1. 24
  2. 26
  3. 36
  4. 30

Answer

(3) 36

Solution

First equation: let t = |x - 2| 0

t2 + t - 2 = 0 (t + 2)(t - 1) = 0 t = 1

x = 1, 3; sum of squares = 1 + 9 = 10

Second equation:

For x 3: x2 - 2x + 1 = 0 x = 1, rejected (1 < 3)

For x < 3: x2 + 2x - 11 = 0 x = -1 2 3, both less than 3 (accepted)

Sum of squares = (x1 + x2)2 - 2x1x2 = 4 + 22 = 26

Required sum = 10 + 26 = 36
