If $p,q,r$ are any real numbers, then

max $\left( {p,q} \right) = \max \;\left( {p,q,r} \right)$

$\max \left( {p,q} \right) < \min \left( {p,q,r} \right)$

$\max \left( {p,q} \right) = \frac{1}{2}\left( {p + q - \left| {p - q} \right|} \right)$

p,q,r

are any real numbers, then

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\min \left( {p,q} \right) = \frac{1}{2}\left( {P + q - \left| {p - q} \right|} \right)

Option B is correct because it provides the correct formula for calculating the minimum of two real numbers p and q using the absolute value function.

The solution of the equation

\log _7 \log _5(\sqrt{x+5}+\sqrt{x})=0

is If

\alpha ,\beta

are the roots of

{x^2} - 3x + a = 0,a \in R

and

\alpha < 1 < \beta ,

then If

\alpha ,\;\beta

be the roots of the equation

{x^2} - px + q = 0

and

{\alpha _1},{\beta _1}

be the roots of the equation

{x^2} - qx + p = 0,

then the equation whose roots are

\frac{1}{{{\alpha _1}\beta }} + \frac{1}{{\alpha {\beta _1}}}\mathrm{and}\;\frac{1}{{\alpha {\alpha _1}}} + \frac{1}{{\beta {\beta _1}}},

is If

{x^2} + 4ax + 2 > 0

for all values of
