    If a, b and g are the roots of equation \[{{x}^{3}}-3{{x}^{2}}+x+5=0\] then \[y=\sum {{\alpha }^{2}}+\alpha \beta \gamma \] satisfies the equation  [J & K 2005]

    A) \[{{y}^{3}}+y+2=0\]

    B) \[{{y}^{3}}-{{y}^{2}}-y-2=0\]

    C) \[{{y}^{3}}+3{{y}^{2}}-y-3=0\]

    D) \[{{y}^{3}}+4{{y}^{2}}+5y+20=0\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given equation\[{{x}^{3}}-3{{x}^{2}}+x+5=0\]. Then\[\alpha +\beta +\gamma =3\], \[\alpha \beta +\beta \gamma +\gamma \alpha =1\], \[\alpha \beta \gamma =-5\] \[y=\Sigma {{\alpha }^{2}}+\alpha \beta \gamma ={{(\alpha +\beta +\gamma )}^{2}}-2\,(\alpha \beta +\beta \gamma +\gamma \alpha )+\alpha \beta \gamma \]    = \[9-2-5=2\] \[\therefore \] \[y=2\] It satisfies the equation\[{{y}^{3}}-{{y}^{2}}-y-2=0\].
