if x=1 is the common root of the equations a x squared +a x+3=0 and x squared+x+b=0 then the value of ab is

Answer»
{ax}^{2} + ax + 3 = 0 \\ x = 1 \\ a {(1)}^{2} + a(1) + 3 = 0 \\ a + a = - 3 \\ 2a = - 3 \\ a = - 1.5
{x}^{2} + x + b = 0 \\ x = 1 \\ {(1)}^{2} + 1 + b = 0 \\ 2 + b = 0 \\ b = - 2
ab = ( - 1.5) \times ( - 2) \\ ab = 3
