The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the implications of having one root of a quadratic equation as \( \frac{1}{2 - 3i} \). ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Root:** The given root is \( r_1 = \frac{1}{2 - 3i} \). 2. **Find the Conjugate Root:** Since the coefficients of the quadratic equation are real, the complex roots must occur in conjugate pairs. Therefore, the conjugate of \( r_1 \) is: \[ r_2 = \frac{1}{2 + 3i} \] 3. **Check the First Implication:** The first implication states that the second root of the equation will be \( \frac{1}{3 - 2i} \). This is incorrect because the second root must be the conjugate of the first root, which we found to be \( \frac{1}{2 + 3i} \). 4. **Check the Second Implication:** The second implication states that the equation has no real roots. Since both roots are complex (they are conjugates), this implication is true. 5. **Check the Third Implication:** The third implication states that the equation is \( 13x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0 \). To verify this, we need to check the sum and product of the roots: - **Sum of the roots**: \[ r_1 + r_2 = \frac{1}{2 - 3i} + \frac{1}{2 + 3i} \] To compute this, we find a common denominator: \[ = \frac{(2 + 3i) + (2 - 3i)}{(2 - 3i)(2 + 3i)} = \frac{4}{4 + 9} = \frac{4}{13} \] According to Vieta's formulas, the sum of the roots \( -\frac{b}{a} \) should equal \( \frac{4}{13} \). - **Product of the roots**: \[ r_1 \cdot r_2 = \left(\frac{1}{2 - 3i}\right) \left(\frac{1}{2 + 3i}\right) = \frac{1}{(2 - 3i)(2 + 3i)} = \frac{1}{4 + 9} = \frac{1}{13} \] According to Vieta's formulas, the product of the roots \( \frac{c}{a} \) should equal \( \frac{1}{13} \). Since both the sum and product of the roots match the coefficients of the quadratic equation \( 13x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0 \), this implication is also true. ### Conclusion: - The first implication is **false**. - The second implication is **true**. - The third implication is **true**. Thus, the correct implications are the second and third.
