x² - 5x + k
Here, a = 1, b = -5 and c = k
Now, α + β = = = 5
α*β = c/a= k/7= k
Now,α - β =1
Squaring both sides, we get,
(α - β) = 12
⇒ α² + β² - 2αβ = 1
⇒ (α² + β² + 2αβ) - 4αβ = 1
⇒ (α +β)² - 4αβ = 1
⇒ (5)² - 4k = 1
⇒ -4k = 7-25
⇒ -4k = -24
⇒ k = 6
∴ The value of k is 6.
I hope my answer will help you!!!
