Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2025

The number of solutions of the equation

$ \left( \frac{9}{x} - \frac{9}{\sqrt{x}} + 2 \right) \left( \frac{2}{x} - \frac{7}{\sqrt{x}} + 3 \right) = 0 $ is :

  1. A <p>3</p>
  2. B <p>2</p>
  3. C <p>1</p>
  4. D <p>4</p> Correct answer

Solution

<p>Consider $\frac{1}{\sqrt{\mathrm{x}}}=\alpha \quad \mathrm{x}>0$</p> <p>$$\begin{aligned} & \left(9 \alpha^2-9 \alpha+2\right)\left(2 \alpha^2-7 \alpha+3\right)=0 \\ & (3 \alpha-2)(3 \alpha-1)(\alpha-3)(2 \alpha-1)=0 \\ & \alpha=\frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{2}{3}, 3 \\ & x=9,4, \frac{9}{4}, \frac{1}{9} \end{aligned}$$</p> <p>So, no. of solutions $=4$</p>
