The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the values of \( \alpha \) such that the ordered triplets \( (1, 2, p) \), \( (2, 8, -6) \), and \( (\alpha^2 - 2\alpha, p, 1) \) satisfy the equations: 1. \( \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} = 1 \) 2. \( \frac{x}{b} + \frac{y}{c} + \frac{z}{a} = 1 \) 3. \( \frac{x}{c} + \frac{y}{a} + \frac{z}{b} = 1 \) where \( a, b, c \) are the sums of the respective coordinates of the triplets. ### Step 1: Determine the values of \( a, b, c \) From the second triplet \( (2, 8, -6) \): - \( a = 2 + 8 - 6 = 4 \) ### Step 2: Solve for \( p \) Next, we substitute the first triplet \( (1, 2, p) \) into the equation: - \( 1 + 2 + p = 4 \) - Thus, \( p = 4 - 3 = 1 \) ### Step 3: Substitute \( p \) back into the third triplet Now we have \( p = 1 \), and we substitute this into the third triplet: - The third triplet becomes \( (\alpha^2 - 2\alpha, 1, 1) \). ### Step 4: Set up the equation for the third triplet Now we can write the equation: - \( \alpha^2 - 2\alpha + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4 \) - Simplifying gives us: \[ \alpha^2 - 2\alpha + 3 = 4 \] - Rearranging gives: \[ \alpha^2 - 2\alpha - 1 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Solve the quadratic equation Using the quadratic formula \( \alpha = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \): - Here, \( a = 1, b = -2, c = -1 \). - The discriminant is: \[ b^2 - 4ac = (-2)^2 - 4(1)(-1) = 4 + 4 = 8 \] - Thus, the roots are: \[ \alpha = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{8}}{2} = 1 \pm \sqrt{2} \] ### Step 6: Find the sum of the values of \( \alpha \) The values of \( \alpha \) are \( 1 + \sqrt{2} \) and \( 1 - \sqrt{2} \). Therefore, the sum of the values of \( \alpha \) is: \[ (1 + \sqrt{2}) + (1 - \sqrt{2}) = 2 \] ### Final Answer The sum of all the values of \( \alpha \) is \( \boxed{2} \).
