Q47 / 68 · NEST (NISER) 2021 (Session 2) · Mathematics
Two distinct complex numbers $a, b$ are such that the roots of $x^2+b x+a=0$ are squares of the roots of $x^2+a x+b=0$. Let $X=\sum_{k=0}^{2022} a^k$ and $Y=\sum_{k=1}^{2022} b^k$. Then $X+Y$ is
- A$\sqrt{-1}$
- Correct answerB1
- C0
- D2
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
