The correct Answer is:
To find the other roots of the given reciprocal equation \( 6x^5 - 29x^4 + 2x^3 + 2x^2 - 29x + 6 = 0 \) where \( 2 \) and \( 3 \) are roots, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Reciprocal Roots Since \( 2 \) and \( 3 \) are roots of the reciprocal equation, the roots of the original equation will be their reciprocals. Therefore, we have: \[ \text{Reciprocal roots} = \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3} \] ### Step 2: Set Up the Reciprocal Equation To find the reciprocal equation, we substitute \( x = \frac{1}{y} \) into the original equation: \[ 6\left(\frac{1}{y}\right)^5 - 29\left(\frac{1}{y}\right)^4 + 2\left(\frac{1}{y}\right)^3 + 2\left(\frac{1}{y}\right)^2 - 29\left(\frac{1}{y}\right) + 6 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Multiply Through by \( y^5 \) Multiplying the entire equation by \( y^5 \) to eliminate the fractions gives: \[ 6 - 29y + 2y^2 + 2y^3 - 29y^4 + 6y^5 = 0 \] Rearranging this, we get: \[ 6y^5 - 29y^4 + 2y^3 + 2y^2 - 29y + 6 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Finding Other Roots Since we already have two roots \( \frac{1}{2} \) and \( \frac{1}{3} \), we need to find the other roots. We can test some simple values to find additional roots. Let's test \( y = -1 \): \[ 6(-1)^5 - 29(-1)^4 + 2(-1)^3 + 2(-1)^2 - 29(-1) + 6 \] Calculating this: \[ 6(-1) - 29(1) + 2(-1) + 2(1) + 29 + 6 = -6 - 29 - 2 + 2 + 29 + 6 = 0 \] Since the equation equals zero, \( y = -1 \) is indeed a root. ### Step 5: Conclusion Thus, the roots of the original equation are: \[ \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3}, -1 \] ### Final Answer The other roots of the equation are \( -1, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{3} \). ---
