Heya !!!!

This is your answer......

Given :----

Sum of zeroes, (a+b) = 21/8.
Product of zeroes, (ab) = 5/16.

General formula of quadratic equation is..
.............
p(x) = kx^2 -(a+b)x + ab
Putting values .....
p(x) = x^2 - (21/8)x + 5/16.
x^2 - 21x/8 + 5/16 = 0

Multiplying both sides by 16.....
We get....
16x^2 - 42x + 5 = 0.

Hence.. the required equation is 16x^2 - 42x + 5 = 0.

Hope it helps....
