help please anybody @ganeshie8 please solve it
\[-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}/2a\] the 2a is under the whole equation not just the last part
hurry up please
no this eq can't help me ,, this question is way more than that ,, quadratic equation cant help
the resulting equations you get will be \[\alpha = some-function-of-a \] and \[\beta = some-other-function-of-a\] then you can equate the two equations to find a
well the two equations and the \[2*\alpha-\beta=7\] that they give you. Combine them to find 'a'
Just don't mix up the a in the quadratic equation with the 'a' that you are trying to find. Wasn't great of them to use the letter 'a' for the unknown
@aa123 Do not post your question in somebody elses.
@Dom89 u don't even know what this Question is about,, seriously it can't b solved by quadretic equation
yeah @YanaSidlinskiy thats right
If the roots of the equation are \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\), then the equation is: \((x - \alpha)(x - \beta) = 0 \) \(x^2 - \beta x - \alpha x + \alpha \beta = 0 \) \(x^2 - (\alpha + \beta)x + \alpha \beta = 0\) You are given \(x^2 - 3x + a = 0\) That means \(\alpha + \beta = -3 \) You are also given \(2\alpha - \beta = 0\) You have two equations and two variables. Solve the system of equations for \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\). Once you know those values, substitute them in \((x - \alpha)(x - \beta) = 0 \). Then multiply it out to find a.
thanks ,, alpha +beta is not -3 it's 3 but so much thanks it gave me right way to solve ,, thanks
Good point. Thanks for pointing that out.
