Answer:
b. x² - 10x + 9 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
let the original equation be ax²+bx+c = 0
let the equation of first student be ax²+bx+c₁ = 0 ---(1)
- roots were 8 and 2
let the equation of second student be ax²+b₁x+c = 0 ---(2)
- roots were -9 and 1
from 1,
sum of roots = -b/a
⇒ -b/a = 8+2
⇒ -b/a = 10 ---(3)
from 2,
product of roots = c/a
⇒ c/a = (-9)(-1)
⇒ c/a = 9 ---(4)
the original equation (ax²+bx+c)
⇒ x² - (sum of roots)x + (product of roots) = 0
⇒ x² - (-b/a)x + (c/a) = 0
⇒ x² - 10x + 9 = 0 [from equation (3) and (4)]
