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
