Findthe polynomialequation whoseroots are thereciprocalsof therootsofx⁴-3x³+7x²+5x-2=0 |
|
Answer» The GIVEN equation is x 2 −3x−4=0 x² −3x−4=0 ⇒ x 2 −4x+x−4=0 ⇒ x(x−4)+1(x−4)=0 ⇒ (x−4)(x+1)=0 ⇒ x=4 and x=−1 Taking RECIPROCAL of roots we get, ⇒ x= 1/4 and x=−1 The required equation, ⇒ (x− 4/1) (x+1)=0 ⇒ x² +x - x/4 - 1/4 =0 ⇒ 4x²+4x−x−1=0 [ MULTIPLYING both SIDES by 4 ] ∴ 4x² +3x−1=0 |
