The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the equation whose roots are \(2\alpha + 3\) and \(2\beta + 3\), given that \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are the roots of the equation \(2x^2 - x - 3 = 0\). ### Step 1: Find the roots \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) We start with the quadratic equation: \[ 2x^2 - x - 3 = 0 \] Using the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \] Here, \(a = 2\), \(b = -1\), and \(c = -3\). Substituting the values into the formula: \[ x = \frac{-(-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4 \cdot 2 \cdot (-3)}}{2 \cdot 2} \] Calculating the discriminant: \[ x = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{1 + 24}}{4} \] \[ x = \frac{1 \pm \sqrt{25}}{4} \] \[ x = \frac{1 \pm 5}{4} \] This gives us two roots: \[ \alpha = \frac{6}{4} = \frac{3}{2}, \quad \beta = \frac{-4}{4} = -1 \] ### Step 2: Find \(2\alpha + 3\) and \(2\beta + 3\) Now we calculate the new roots: 1. For \(2\alpha + 3\): \[ 2\alpha + 3 = 2 \cdot \frac{3}{2} + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6 \] 2. For \(2\beta + 3\): \[ 2\beta + 3 = 2 \cdot (-1) + 3 = -2 + 3 = 1 \] ### Step 3: Form the new quadratic equation Now we need to find the quadratic equation whose roots are \(6\) and \(1\). The general form of a quadratic equation with roots \(p\) and \(q\) is: \[ x^2 - (p + q)x + pq = 0 \] Here, \(p = 6\) and \(q = 1\): 1. Calculate \(p + q\): \[ p + q = 6 + 1 = 7 \] 2. Calculate \(pq\): \[ pq = 6 \cdot 1 = 6 \] Thus, the equation is: \[ x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0 \] ### Final Answer The required equation having roots \(2\alpha + 3\) and \(2\beta + 3\) is: \[ \boxed{x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0} \]
