Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incorrect. The equation should be
You can consider either sum of the roots, sum of product of roots taken two at a time, or product of roots.
For a cubic polynomial with roots α, β, γ
α + β + γ =
αβ + βγ + γα =
αβγ =
Let the unknown root be 'p'
p + 1 - 2 = 4
=> p = 5
(OR)
[p][1] + [1][-2] + [-2][p] = -7
=> p - 2 - 2p = -7
=> -p = -5
=> p = 5
(OR)
[p][1][-2] = -10
=> -2p = -10
=> p = 5
