The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the coefficients \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \) of the equation \( x^3 + Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0 \) whose roots are \( 3\alpha + 2 \), \( 3\beta + 2 \), and \( 3\gamma + 2 \), given that \( \alpha \), \( \beta \), and \( \gamma \) are the roots of the equation \( 9x^3 - 7x + 6 = 0 \). ### Step 1: Identify the roots of the original equation The original equation is \( 9x^3 - 7x + 6 = 0 \). By Vieta's formulas, we know: - \( \alpha + \beta + \gamma = 0 \) (coefficient of \( x^2 \) is 0) - \( \alpha\beta + \beta\gamma + \gamma\alpha = -\frac{-7}{9} = \frac{7}{9} \) - \( \alpha\beta\gamma = -\frac{6}{9} = -\frac{2}{3} \) ### Step 2: Find the new roots The new roots are \( 3\alpha + 2 \), \( 3\beta + 2 \), and \( 3\gamma + 2 \). ### Step 3: Sum of the new roots The sum of the new roots is: \[ (3\alpha + 2) + (3\beta + 2) + (3\gamma + 2) = 3(\alpha + \beta + \gamma) + 6 = 3(0) + 6 = 6 \] ### Step 4: Product of the new roots taken two at a time The product of the new roots taken two at a time is: \[ (3\alpha + 2)(3\beta + 2) + (3\beta + 2)(3\gamma + 2) + (3\gamma + 2)(3\alpha + 2) \] Expanding this: \[ = 9(\alpha\beta + \beta\gamma + \gamma\alpha) + 6(\alpha + \beta + \gamma) + 4 \] Substituting the values from Vieta's: \[ = 9\left(\frac{7}{9}\right) + 6(0) + 4 = 7 + 0 + 4 = 11 \] ### Step 5: Product of the new roots The product of the new roots is: \[ (3\alpha + 2)(3\beta + 2)(3\gamma + 2) = 27\alpha\beta\gamma + 18(\alpha\beta + \beta\gamma + \gamma\alpha) + 12(\alpha + \beta + \gamma) + 8 \] Substituting the values: \[ = 27\left(-\frac{2}{3}\right) + 18\left(\frac{7}{9}\right) + 12(0) + 8 \] Calculating this gives: \[ = -18 + 14 + 0 + 8 = 4 \] ### Step 6: Form the new polynomial Using the sums and products found: - The sum of the roots \( = -A = 6 \) → \( A = -6 \) - The sum of the products of the roots taken two at a time \( = B = 11 \) - The product of the roots \( = -C = 4 \) → \( C = -4 \) Thus, the coefficients are: - \( A = -6 \) - \( B = 11 \) - \( C = -4 \) ### Final Answer The values of \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \) are: - \( A = -6 \) - \( B = 11 \) - \( C = -4 \)

To solve the problem, we need to find the coefficients \( A \), \( B \), and \( C \) of the equation \( x^3 + Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0 \) whose roots are \( 3\alpha + 2 \), \( 3\beta + 2 \), and \( 3\gamma + 2 \), given that \( \alpha \), \( \beta \), and \( \gamma \) are the roots of the equation \( 9x^3 - 7x + 6 = 0 \). ### Step 1: Identify the roots of the original equation The original equation is \( 9x^3 - 7x + 6 = 0 \). By Vieta's formulas, we know: - \( \alpha + \beta + \gamma = 0 \) (coefficient of \( x^2 \) is 0) - \( \alpha\beta + \beta\gamma + \gamma\alpha = -\frac{-7}{9} = \frac{7}{9} \) - \( \alpha\beta\gamma = -\frac{6}{9} = -\frac{2}{3} \) ...
