If A and B are roots of a quadratic equation, then the equation can be written as follow:- x^2 - (A+B)x + (A*B)=0. It is given that the arithmetic mean of the roots is 6. This means... (A+B)/2 =6 further implying (A+B) =12. Also the geometric mean of the roots is given as 4. this means... square...

If A and B are roots of a quadratic equation, then the equation can be written as follow:- x^2 - (A+B)x + (A*B)=0. It is given that the arithmetic mean of the roots is 6. This means... (A+B)/2 =6 further implying (A+B) =12. Also the geometric mean of the roots is given as 4. this means... square root of (A*B)=4, Therefore A*B =16. Hence, the quadratic equation is x^2-12x+16=0. Roots of a quadratic equation of the form a(x^2)+bx+c=0 is given by x= [-b+ sqrt(b^2)-4ac)]/2a and [-b- sqrt(b^2)-4ac)]/2a. Here a=1, b= -12 and c=16. putting this we get, x= [12 + sqrt(144-64)]/2 and [12 - sqrt(144-64)]/2, = [12 + sqrt(80)]/2 and [12 - sqrt(80)]/2 = [12 + sqrt(16*5)]/2 and [12 + sqrt(16*5)]/2 taking 16 outside the sqrt sign = [12 + 4sqrt(5)]/2 and [12 - 4sqrt(5)]/2 now simplify by dividing each term of numerator (separated by + sign) by denominator x=6+2sqrt(5) and 6-2sqrt(5). NOTE:- sqrt here refers to operation of taking square root. read less

Let, roots are a and b. So Equation is : (x-a)(x-b)=0 => x^2 --a.x-b.x +a.b=0=> x^2 --(a+b)x + a.b=0---- (1) According to the question, AM=(a+b)/2= 6=> a+b=12 GM=?(a.b)=4 => a.b= 16. Substituting these in (1), The required quadratic equation is: x^2 --12x+16=0, To solve the equation, use Shridharacharya’s...

Clearly as you have suggested if a and b are the roots then: (a+b)/2 = 6 and (ab)^0.5 = 4. Now by theory of equations it is clear that solution is x² - (a+b)x + ab = 0

let quadratic equation is ax^2 + bx+c = 0 ---(1) and it's roots are X1 and X2. As per given condition X1 + X2 = 2 * 6 = 12. X1 * X2 = (4) ^2 = 16. As X1 and X2 are the roots of above quadratic equation, it's relation with coefficient's of equation (a,b,c) is X1+X2 = (-b/a) and X1 * X2 = (c/a). Here...

let quadratic equation is ax^2 + bx+c = 0 ---(1) and it's roots are X1 and X2. As per given condition X1 + X2 = 2 * 6 = 12. X1 * X2 = (4) ^2 = 16. As X1 and X2 are the roots of above quadratic equation, it's relation with coefficient's of equation (a,b,c) is X1+X2 = (-b/a) and X1 * X2 = (c/a). Here we are having values of (b/a) and (c/a) thus simply divide equation (1) by a (a is non zero). x^2 + (b/a) x + (c/a) = 0. x^2 -12x + 16 = 0. By solving this roots will be (6 + 2 sqrt(5)) and (6 - 2 sqrt (5)). Hope it is clear :-). read less

When I took physical chemistry a long time ago, I found a two volume paperback set that was purely devoted to solving problems in physical chemistry; they went through the major areas, such as gas law, thermodynamics, etc., set up problems, and showed in detail how they were solved. And in graduate school, they helped me pass the physical chemistry prelims. I don't know if something like that is still published, but I would try and find out if they are.
