The correct Answer is:
To find the quadratic equation given the roots \( \frac{7}{2} \) and \( \frac{3}{5} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the roots Let the roots be: - \( A = \frac{7}{2} \) - \( B = \frac{3}{5} \) ### Step 2: Calculate the sum of the roots The sum of the roots \( S \) is given by: \[ S = A + B = \frac{7}{2} + \frac{3}{5} \] To add these fractions, we need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 2 and 5 is 10. Convert each fraction: \[ \frac{7}{2} = \frac{7 \times 5}{2 \times 5} = \frac{35}{10} \] \[ \frac{3}{5} = \frac{3 \times 2}{5 \times 2} = \frac{6}{10} \] Now, add them: \[ S = \frac{35}{10} + \frac{6}{10} = \frac{41}{10} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the product of the roots The product of the roots \( P \) is given by: \[ P = A \times B = \frac{7}{2} \times \frac{3}{5} = \frac{21}{10} \] ### Step 4: Write the quadratic equation The general form of a quadratic equation with roots \( A \) and \( B \) is: \[ x^2 - (A + B)x + (A \cdot B) = 0 \] Substituting the values we calculated: \[ x^2 - \frac{41}{10}x + \frac{21}{10} = 0 \] ### Step 5: Eliminate the fraction by multiplying through by 10 To eliminate the fractions, multiply the entire equation by 10: \[ 10x^2 - 41x + 21 = 0 \] ### Conclusion The required quadratic equation is: \[ 10x^2 - 41x + 21 = 0 \]
