Find the quadratic equation whose roots ...

Find the quadratic equation whose roots are 2 times the roots of `x^(2) - 12x - 13 = 0`.

A

`x^(2) - 24x - 52 = 0`

B

`x^(2) - 24x - 26 = 0`

C

`x^(2) - 14x - 15 = 0`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`f(x) = x^(2) - 12x - 13 = 0`
If the roots of `g(x)` are 2 times the roots of `f(x)` , then
`g(x) = f(x/2) - 13 = 0`
`rArr (x/2)^(2) - 12(x/2) - 13 = 0`
`rArr (x^(2))/(4) - (12x)/(2) - 13 = 0`
`rArr x^(2) - 24 x - 52 = 0`.
