If x = 1 is a common root of ax² +ax + 2 = 0 and x² + x + b = 0 , then ab =

ab = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations

ax² +ax + 2 = 0

x² + x + b = 0

root of both the equation

x= 1

then we can plug in x = 1 in both the equation

ax² +ax + 2 = 0                        x² + x + b = 0

a*1² +a*1 + 2 = 0                        1² + 1 + b = 0

a +a + 2 = 0                                 1 + 1 + b = 0

2a + 2 = 0                                    2 + b = 0

2a = -  2                                         b = -2

a = -2/2 = -1

Thus,

a = -1

b = -2

a*b = -1*-2 = 2

ab = 2

the answer is a.

i think the answer is b
