following is the equation of 2b = a+c=
The given equation is (b-c) x² + (c-a)x+(a−b)=0
The roots of the given equation are equal,
D=b²-4ac0
(c-a)²-4(b-c)(a - b) = 0 (c² + a²-2ac)-4 (ab-b²-ca+bc) = 0
⇒c² + a² - 2ac-4ab+4b² + 4ac-4bc = 0 ⇒a² +46² +c²-4ab-4bc + 2ac = 0
⇒a²+(-28)² +c²+2xax(−2b)+2x(-26)xc+2xcxa=0
= (a +(-2b)+c)² = 0 ((x+y+z)² = x² + y² +z²+2xy +2yz+2zx)
⇒a-2b+c=0
⇒2b=a+c
