If Alfa and beta are the roots of quadratic polynomial p (x) =x2 - ( k+6)x+2 (2k-1) find the value of k if Alfa +beta = 1/2 alfa beta

Answer»

ANSWER:

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

given quadratic polynomial is x^2  - ( K+6) x +2(2k-1)

given alpha and beta are the ROOTS ........

sum of the roots = - b/ a

                           =  (k+6)

product of the roots = c/a

                                   = 2(2k-1)

given

k+6 = 1/2( 2(2k-1))

k+6 = 2k-1

k = 7

the value of k is 7
