If p, q, r are real and `p ne q`, then the roots of the equation `(p-q)x^(2) +5(p+q) x-2(p-q) r` areA. real and equalB. unequal and rationalC. unequal and irrationalD. nothing can be said

Answer» Correct Answer - D
The discriminant D of the given equation is `D = 25 (p+q)^(2) + 8(p-q)^(2)+4r(p-q)`
Clearly, its sign cannot be determined.
So, nothing can be said about the nature of roots.
