The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the three quadratic equations given and find the values of the roots \( \alpha, \beta, \) and \( \gamma \). ### Step 1: Write down the equations and their relationships We have three equations: 1. \( x^2 - 6p_1 x + 2 = 0 \) with roots \( \alpha \) and \( \beta \) 2. \( x^2 - 6p_2 x + 3 = 0 \) with roots \( \beta \) and \( \gamma \) 3. \( x^2 - 6p_3 x + 6 = 0 \) with roots \( \gamma \) and \( \alpha \) From Vieta's formulas, we can derive the following relationships: - For the first equation: - Sum of roots: \( \alpha + \beta = 6p_1 \) (Equation 1) - Product of roots: \( \alpha \beta = 2 \) (Equation 2) - For the second equation: - Sum of roots: \( \beta + \gamma = 6p_2 \) (Equation 3) - Product of roots: \( \beta \gamma = 3 \) (Equation 4) - For the third equation: - Sum of roots: \( \gamma + \alpha = 6p_3 \) (Equation 5) - Product of roots: \( \gamma \alpha = 6 \) (Equation 6) ### Step 2: Express \( \beta \) and \( \gamma \) in terms of \( \alpha \) From Equation 2, we have: \[ \beta = \frac{2}{\alpha} \] Substituting \( \beta \) into Equation 4: \[ \frac{2}{\alpha} \gamma = 3 \implies \gamma = \frac{3\alpha}{2} \] ### Step 3: Substitute \( \gamma \) back into the equations Now substitute \( \gamma \) into Equation 6: \[ \left(\frac{3\alpha}{2}\right) \alpha = 6 \implies \frac{3\alpha^2}{2} = 6 \implies 3\alpha^2 = 12 \implies \alpha^2 = 4 \implies \alpha = 2 \text{ or } \alpha = -2 \] ### Step 4: Determine \( \beta \) and \( \gamma \) 1. If \( \alpha = 2 \): - \( \beta = \frac{2}{2} = 1 \) - \( \gamma = \frac{3 \cdot 2}{2} = 3 \) 2. If \( \alpha = -2 \): - \( \beta = \frac{2}{-2} = -1 \) - \( \gamma = \frac{3 \cdot (-2)}{2} = -3 \) ### Step 5: Check the positivity condition Since \( p_1, p_2, p_3 \) are all positive, we need \( \alpha + \beta + \gamma \) to be positive: - For \( \alpha = 2, \beta = 1, \gamma = 3 \): \[ \alpha + \beta + \gamma = 2 + 1 + 3 = 6 \text{ (positive)} \] - For \( \alpha = -2, \beta = -1, \gamma = -3 \): \[ \alpha + \beta + \gamma = -2 - 1 - 3 = -6 \text{ (not positive)} \] ### Conclusion The only valid solution is: \[ \alpha = 2, \beta = 1, \gamma = 3 \] ### Final Answer The values of \( \alpha, \beta, \gamma \) are \( 2, 1, 3 \) respectively. ---
