4-2.Quadratic Equations and Inequations
normal

Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the two disinct roots of the equation $x^3 + 3x^2 -1 = 0.$ The equation which has $(\alpha \beta )$ as its root is equal to

A

$x^3 -3x -1 =0$

B

$x^3 -3x^2 + 1 = 0$

C

$x^3 + x^2 -3x + 1 = 0$

D

$x^3 + x^2 + 3x -1 = 0$

Solution

Let ramining root is $\mathrm{r}$

then $\alpha \beta \gamma=1$ so $\alpha \beta=\frac{1}{\gamma}$

so req. eq. is $\frac{1}{x^{3}}+\frac{3}{x^{2}}-1=0$

$=1+3 \mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}^{3}=0$ $ \Rightarrow \boxed{{{\text{x}}^3} – 3{\text{x}} – 1 = 0}$
