Correct answer is (a) (-∞,-3)

Q. If the quadratic equation $x^{2} + a x - 4 = 0$ has roots $α, β$ such that $- 1 < α < 2 < β$ , then the range of values of $a$ is

$(- \infty, - 3)$

$(0, 3)$

$(0, \infty)$

$(- \infty, - 3) \cup (0, 3)$

Correct answer is (a) $(- \infty, - 3)$

Q. If the quadratic equation x2+ax−4=0 has roots α,β such that −1<α<2<β, then the range of values of a is

(−∞,−3)

(0,3)

(0,∞)

(−∞,−3)∪(0,3)

Correct answer is (a) (−∞,−3)
