The product of the roots is 3636, and the sum is kk. There are 55 ways to decompose 3636 as a product of positive factors, if order does not count, and an equal number of ways to decompose 3636 as a product of negative factors.


Thus there are 1010 possible values of kk.


Khushias: just wait a min....wht????
TTG003: No change in answer
TTG003: A small mistake......
TTG003: Only.....But the answer is same...
Khushias: look...! u hve written. 121 = 37 - 12k
Khushias: then, it would be 121 - 37 = -12k
Khushias: so the ans would be ( -7)

The value of k is 7.....But alpha + beta is -(-5) which is 5.....
