Solution

The correct option is A $0$
$G i v e n, a + b + c = α d \Rightarrow b + c = α d - a - - - - - - (i) b + c + d = β a \Rightarrow b + c = β a - d - - - - - - (i i) c o m p a r e b o t h e q u (i) & (i i) α d - a = β a - d [\to d = \to a \Rightarrow (α + 1) d = (β + 1) a i f, α = - 1, β = - 1 t h e n, v a l u e i s 0 = 0, a n d, e q u^{n} a + b + c + d = o, i t m e a n s i f a + b + c + d i s e q u a l t o 0. s o t h a t w e c a n s a y t h e c o n d i t i o n i s c o r r e c t .$
