The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \(\lambda\) given the polynomial \(x^4 - 12x^3 + \lambda x^2 - 54x + 14 = 0\) with roots \(\alpha, \beta, \gamma, \delta\) such that \(\alpha + \beta = \gamma + \delta\). ### Step 1: Use Vieta's Formulas From Vieta's formulas, we know: 1. The sum of the roots: \[ \alpha + \beta + \gamma + \delta = 12 \] 2. The product of the roots: \[ \alpha \beta \gamma \delta = 14 \] 3. The sum of the products of the roots taken two at a time: \[ \alpha \beta + \alpha \gamma + \alpha \delta + \beta \gamma + \beta \delta + \gamma \delta = \lambda \] 4. The sum of the products of the roots taken three at a time: \[ \alpha \beta \gamma + \alpha \beta \delta + \alpha \gamma \delta + \beta \gamma \delta = 54 \] ### Step 2: Set Up the Equations Given that \(\alpha + \beta = \gamma + \delta\), we can denote: \[ \alpha + \beta = s \quad \text{and} \quad \gamma + \delta = s \] Thus, we have: \[ s + s = 12 \implies 2s = 12 \implies s = 6 \] So, \(\alpha + \beta = 6\) and \(\gamma + \delta = 6\). ### Step 3: Relate the Products From the product of the roots: \[ \alpha \beta \cdot \gamma \delta = 14 \] Let \(\alpha \beta = p\) and \(\gamma \delta = q\). Then: \[ p \cdot q = 14 \] ### Step 4: Express \(\lambda\) Using the equation for the sum of the products of the roots taken two at a time: \[ \lambda = \alpha \beta + \gamma \delta + \text{(cross products)} \] We can express the cross products in terms of \(s\): \[ \lambda = p + q + \text{(cross products)} \] But we need to find \(p + q\) first. ### Step 5: Use the Sum of Products From the equation for the sum of the products of the roots taken three at a time: \[ \alpha \beta \gamma + \alpha \beta \delta + \alpha \gamma \delta + \beta \gamma \delta = 54 \] This can be rewritten as: \[ p(\gamma + \delta) + q(\alpha + \beta) = 54 \] Substituting \(\gamma + \delta = 6\) and \(\alpha + \beta = 6\): \[ p \cdot 6 + q \cdot 6 = 54 \implies 6(p + q) = 54 \implies p + q = 9 \] ### Step 6: Solve for \(\lambda\) Now we have: \[ p + q = 9 \quad \text{and} \quad pq = 14 \] The values of \(p\) and \(q\) are the roots of the quadratic: \[ x^2 - (p + q)x + pq = 0 \implies x^2 - 9x + 14 = 0 \] Using the quadratic formula: \[ x = \frac{9 \pm \sqrt{9^2 - 4 \cdot 14}}{2} = \frac{9 \pm \sqrt{81 - 56}}{2} = \frac{9 \pm \sqrt{25}}{2} = \frac{9 \pm 5}{2} \] Thus, the roots are: \[ x = \frac{14}{2} = 7 \quad \text{and} \quad x = \frac{4}{2} = 2 \] So, \(p = 7\) and \(q = 2\) (or vice versa). ### Step 7: Calculate \(\lambda\) Now substituting back into the equation for \(\lambda\): \[ \lambda = p + q + 6 = 7 + 2 + 6 = 15 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the value of \(\lambda\) is: \[ \lambda = 45 \]
