Answer» Answer: ALPHA = α Beta = β We recall that for a QUADRATIC EQUATION in the form y = ax² + bx + c The sum and PRODUCT of the roots can be determined as such: y = x^2 - (sum)x + (product) The numerical coefficient of x² must be 1. Applying this on the GIVEN function, 5y² - 7y + 1 (1/5) (y² - (7/5)y + 1/5) Therefore, sum of the roots (α + β) and product of the roots (αβ), respectively, are: α + β = 7/5 αβ = 1/5 Now, we are asked to find a polynomial with roots 2α/β and 2β/α. What we'll do is get their sum and product: Product: 2α/β × 2β/α 4αβ / αβ = 4 Sum: 2α/β + 2β/α (2α² + 2β²) / αβ 2(α² + β²) / αβ Complete the square inside the parenthesis by adding 2ab, but at the same time subtracting 2(2ab) outside the parenthesis to counter its effect: [ 2(α² + 2αβ + b^2) - 4αβ ] / αβ] [ 2(α + β)² - 4αβ ] / αβ] note that, we have values for α + β and αβ from above. [ 2(7/5)² - 4(1/5) ] / (1/5)] = 78/5 Therefore, the polynomial is, y² - (sum)y + (product) y² - (78/5)y + 4 Step-by-step explanation: |
