If alpha, beta are the roots of x^(2...

If ` alpha, beta ` are the roots of ` x^(2) - 3x + a = 0 , a in R and lt 1 lt beta,`
then find the values of a

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

According to question, 1 lies between the roots, therefore ,` f(1) lt 0 `
`rArr 1 - 3 + a lt 0 `
`rArr a lt 2 ` .
