Answer 1

Answer:

3 is the valu of p for the given problem

Answer 2

Answer:

let the roots be alpha and beta

according to given

$\alpha = 6 \beta$

sum of roots=-b/a

$\alpha + 6 \beta = \frac{14}{p} \: \: equation1$

product of roots=c/a

$\alpha \times 6 \beta = \frac{1}{p} \: \: \: \: equation2$

from equation 1 and 2

u will find the value of p
