Q: If a, b, c  R then find a relation between a, b, c so that two quadratic equations
ax2+bx+c =0 and 1003x2 1505x + 2007 = 0 have a common root

Ans:
We observe that the discriminant of the quadratic equation 1003x2+ 1505x + 2007 =0 is (1505)² - 4 x 1003 x 2007 < 0.
Roots of the equation are complex

We know that complex roots of an equation occur in conjugate pairs, and in this case whenever α be a common root between given equations, other root automatically becomes common

Hence the given equations have both roots common and consequently
which is the required relation
