Solution
The correct option is D−95 Given : f(x)=Ax+B
Putting (A,2A−B2) and (2B+3,(A+B)2−1) in y=f(x), we get 2A−B2=A2+B⇒A2+B2−2A+B=0⋯(1)(A+B)2−1=2AB+3A+B⇒A2+B2−3A−B−1=0⋯(2)
Subracting equation (2) from (1), we get ⇒A+2B+1=0⇒A=−(2B+1)
Using equation (1), we get ⇒(2B+1)2+B2+2(2B+1)+B=0⇒5B2+9B+3=0
There are 2 possible values B1,B2, then 2∑r=1Br=B1+B2=−95
