The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) and its roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \). We will use Vieta's formulas, which relate the coefficients of the polynomial to sums and products of its roots. ### Step 1: Identify the relationships between the roots and coefficients From Vieta's formulas, we have: 1. \( \alpha + \beta = -\frac{b}{a} \) (sum of the roots) 2. \( \alpha \beta = \frac{c}{a} \) (product of the roots) ### Step 2: Calculate \( \alpha^2 + \beta^2 \) We can express \( \alpha^2 + \beta^2 \) using the identity: \[ \alpha^2 + \beta^2 = (\alpha + \beta)^2 - 2\alpha\beta \] Substituting the values from Vieta's formulas: \[ \alpha^2 + \beta^2 = \left(-\frac{b}{a}\right)^2 - 2\left(\frac{c}{a}\right) \] \[ = \frac{b^2}{a^2} - \frac{2c}{a} \] \[ = \frac{b^2 - 2ac}{a^2} \] ### Step 3: Calculate \( \frac{1}{\alpha^2} + \frac{1}{\beta^2} \) We can write: \[ \frac{1}{\alpha^2} + \frac{1}{\beta^2} = \frac{\beta^2 + \alpha^2}{\alpha^2 \beta^2} \] Using the results from Step 2 and the product from Step 1: \[ = \frac{\alpha^2 + \beta^2}{(\alpha \beta)^2} = \frac{\frac{b^2 - 2ac}{a^2}}{\left(\frac{c}{a}\right)^2} \] \[ = \frac{b^2 - 2ac}{a^2} \cdot \frac{a^2}{c^2} = \frac{b^2 - 2ac}{c^2} \] ### Step 4: Calculate \( \frac{1}{\alpha^3} + \frac{1}{\beta^3} \) Using the identity: \[ \frac{1}{\alpha^3} + \frac{1}{\beta^3} = \frac{\alpha^3 + \beta^3}{\alpha^3 \beta^3} \] We know: \[ \alpha^3 + \beta^3 = (\alpha + \beta)(\alpha^2 + \beta^2 - \alpha \beta) \] Substituting the known values: \[ = \left(-\frac{b}{a}\right)\left(\frac{b^2 - 2ac}{a^2} - \frac{c}{a}\right) \] \[ = \left(-\frac{b}{a}\right)\left(\frac{b^2 - 2ac - ac}{a^2}\right) = \left(-\frac{b}{a}\right)\left(\frac{b^2 - 3ac}{a^2}\right) \] Thus: \[ \frac{1}{\alpha^3} + \frac{1}{\beta^3} = \frac{-\frac{b(b^2 - 3ac)}{a^3}}{\left(\frac{c}{a}\right)^3} = \frac{-b(b^2 - 3ac)}{c^3} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( \alpha \beta (\alpha + \beta) \) We can express this as: \[ \alpha \beta (\alpha + \beta) = \left(\frac{c}{a}\right)\left(-\frac{b}{a}\right) = -\frac{bc}{a^2} \] ### Conclusion After calculating the values for each expression, we conclude that all derived expressions are correct based on the relationships established by Vieta's formulas. Therefore, all options provided in the question are correct.
