In the Maths two representativesm, while solving a quadratic equation, committed the following mistakes :
(i) One of them made a mistake in the constant term and got the roots as 5 and 9.
(ii) Another of x and got the roots as 12 and 4. But in the meantime, they realised that they are wrong and they managed to get it right jointly. FInd the corrent quadratic equation.

A

`x^(2) + 4x+ 14= 0`
