MCQ
Let $S=\left\{\alpha: \log _2\left(9^{2 \alpha-4}+13\right)-\log _2\left(\frac{5}{2} \cdot 3^{2 \alpha-4}+1\right)=2\right\} .$  Then the maximum value of $\beta$ for which the equation $x^2-2\left(\sum_{a \in} \alpha\right)^2 x+\sum_{a \in}(\alpha+1)^2 \beta=0$ has real roots, is $...........$
  • A
    $24$
  • $25$
  • C
    $23$
  • D
    $22$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$25$
b
$\log _2\left(9^{2 \alpha-4}+13\right)-\log _2\left(\frac{5}{2} \cdot 3^{2 \alpha-4}+1\right)=2$

$\Rightarrow \frac{9^{2 \alpha-4}+13}{\frac{5}{2} 3^{2 \alpha-4}+1}=4$

$\Rightarrow \alpha=2 \quad \text { or }$

$\sum_{\alpha \in S} \alpha=5 \text { and } \sum_{\alpha \in S}(\alpha+1)^2=25$

$\Rightarrow x^2-50 x+25 \beta=0 \text { has real roots }$

$\Rightarrow \beta \leq 25$

$\Rightarrow \beta_{\max }=25$
