(D) Let $\alpha, \beta$ be the roots of $x^2+ax+b=0$ and $\gamma, \delta$ be the roots of $x^2+bx+a=0$. From the relations between roots and coefficients: $\alpha+\beta = -a, \alpha\beta = b$ $\gamma+\delta = -b, \gamma\delta = a$ Given that the difference between the roots is the same: $|\alpha-\beta| = |\gamma-\delta|$ Squaring both sides: $(\alpha-\beta)^2 = (\gamma-\delta)^2$ $(\alpha+\beta)^2 - 4\alpha\beta = (\gamma+\delta)^2 - 4\gamma\delta$ $(-a)^2 - 4b = (-b)^2 - 4a$ $a^2 - 4b = b^2 - 4a$ $a^2 - b^2 + 4a - 4b = 0$ $(a-b)(a+b) + 4(a-b) = 0$ $(a-b)(a+b+4) = 0$ Since $a 
eq b$,we have $a-b 
eq 0$. Therefore,$a+b+4 = 0$.

If the difference between the roots of the equations $x^2+ax+b=0$ and $x^2+bx+a=0$ is the same,and $a \neq b$,then:
