Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
4
`a_(4) = a_(3) + a_(2)`
` = a_(2) + a_(1) + a_(1) + a_(0)`
`a_(1) + a_(0) + 2a_(1) + a_(0)`
` 2a_(0) + 3a_(1) = 2(p+ q) + 3 (p alpha + q beta)`
` = 2(p + q) + 3 (p alpha + q) (1 - alpha))`
= ` (2p + 5q = 28 and 3p - 3q = 0 as p,q in Q and alpha ` is irrational .
` therefore p = q = 4 `
`therefore =P + 2q = 12 `
