Let a,b,c,d inN and a lt b lt c lt dsuch that the equation |x-a|+|x-b|+|x-c|+|x-d|=20-2(a+b) has infinite solutions then find the number of possible quadruplets (a,b,c,d).

Answer»

Solution :552
f(b)=f( C)=d+c-a-b=20-2(a+b)
`:. a+b+c+d=20`
LET a=x,b=a+y,c=b+z, d=c+w
`:.` 4x+3y+2z+w=20
As `23xx4!=552`.
