Let one of the roots be a.
Then, the other root will be 2a.
x2+6x+q=0.
Sum of the roots, a+2a=−(6)/(1)
3a=(−6)
a=−2.
Therefore, the other root is −4.
Also, product of roots= (q/1)
2a2=q.
2(4)=q
q=8.
Hence, the value of q is 8 and the roots are -2 and -4.

We know that sum of roots in a quadratic equation is given by
p+q=-b/a
If p, q are roots
The quadratic equation is x^2+6x+q
One root is twice the other. So,
The roots are p, 2p
Comparing coefficients,
a=1,b=6,c=q
So, - b/a=p+2p
-6/1=3p
-6=3p
p=-2
So the roots are - 2 and 2(-2)=-4
Also we know that product of zeros=c/a
That is, pq=c/a
-2×(-4)=q/1
q=8
