If (3a + 1)2 + (b - 1)2 + (2c - 3)2 = 0 then the value of (3a + b + 2c) is equal to?
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
$$\eqalign{
& {\left( {3a + 1} \right)^2} + {\left( {b - 1} \right)^2} + {\left( {2c - 3} \right)^2} = 0 \cr
& {\left( {3a + 1} \right)^2} = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow 3a = - 1 \cr
& \Rightarrow a = - \frac{1}{3} \cr
& {\left( {b - 1} \right)^2} = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow b - 1 = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow b = 1 \cr
& {\left( {2c - 3} \right)^2} = 0 \cr
& \Rightarrow c = \frac{3}{2} \cr
& \therefore 3a + b + 2c \cr
& = 3 \times - \frac{1}{3} + 1 + \frac{3}{2} \times 2 \cr
& = - 1 + 1 + 3 \cr
& = 3 \cr} $$
