if the roots of the equation 2x^4-8x^3+12x^2-8x+2=0 are x1,x2,x3,x4 then the value of (x1+2x2+3x3+4x4) is equal to

1) 1
2) 10
3) 30
4) none of these

Read Solution (Total 1)

2x^4-8x^3+12x^2-8x+2=0
x^4-4x^3+6x^2-4x+1=0
x^3(x-1)-3x^2(x-1)+3x(x-1)-(x-1)=0
(x-1)(x^3-3x^2+3x-1)=0
(x-1)^4=0
the roots are 1,1,1,1
so answer is =1+2+3+4=10
answer is (2)10
