Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For a quadratic eqn ax^2 + bx + c
sum of roots = -b/a
product of roots = c/a
Here,
4x^2 - 20x -p^2 = 0
alpha + beta = -(-20) / 4 = 5
alpha * beta = -p^2 /4
Now,
(a-b)^2 = (a+b)^2 - 4ab
(alpha - beta )^2 = (5)^2 - 4 * -p^2/4
= 25 + p^2
(alpha-beta) = root (25 + p^2)
Your answer is A
HOpe it helps:-)
