The average of a, b, c is 6 and a-b = 4, ab = 21, what is the value of c ?
Correct Answer:
C: 8
Explanation:
The average of a, b, c is 6 and a-b = 4, ab = 21, what is the value of c ? Correct Answer 8 Here, a - b = 4 or, a = b + 4 - - - - - - (i) Again, ab = 21 or, (b + 4)b = 21 [from (i)] or, b2 + 4b - 21 = 0 or. b2 + 7b - 3b - 21 = 0 or, b(b + 7) - 3(b + 7) = 0 or, (b + 7) (b - 3) = 0 or, b - 3 = 0 [b ≠ - 7] So, b = 3. Now, a + b + c = 6 x 3 or, a + b + c = 18 or, b + 4 + b + c = 18 [from(i)] or, 3 + 4 + 3 + c = 18 or, c = 18 - 10 = 8
