Solution

The correct option is D $- 11$ and $5$
$∵ 2 x^{2} + x y - 3 y^{2} + x + a y - 10$
$= (2 x + 3 y + b) (x - y - 2)$
$= 2 x^{2} + x y - 3 y^{2} + (b - 4) x - (b + 6) y - 2 b$
Compare the coefficients of x, y and constant on both sides,
$b - 4 = 1 ⟹ b = 5$
$- (b + 6) = a ⟹ a = - 11$
$2 b = 10 ⟹ b = 5$
$∴ a = - 11$ and $b = 5$
