Question

The equation px^2-16x+3=0 has two distinct roots a and alphabeta .Also 1/A - 1/ alphabeta = 14/3.Find the value of p. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

1 / a - 1 /alphabeta = 14/3

1/a - 1 /c/a (alphabeta = c/a)

= 14/3

1/p - 1/3p /3p^2 = 14/3

2p/3p^2 = 14/3

42p = 6

p = 1/7

i donno whether it's right or wrong cuz i haven't studied quadratic equations of 11th till now cuz i have just passed out 10th a few months ago still i tried ...
