Given x2 + 7x + 10 = x2 + 2x + 5x + 10, ⇒ divides q2, = x(x+2) + 5(x+2), ⇒ divides q, = (x+2)(x+5), Hence p and q have common factor 3, ∴ -2,-5 are zeroes of x2 + 7x + 10 ., It is contradiction because p,q are coHere a = 1, b = 7, c = 10 and, primes, = -2 ,, = -5., Hence √3 is irrational ., −, −, =, ∴ + = -2 -5 = -7 =, …………………………………………….., Day16, ∴ . = -2 x -5 = 10 =, =, 3.
