For what value of m the ratio of the roots of the equation 12x^2 – mx + 5 = 0 is 3 : 2 ? -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

Given equation: 12x2+mx+5=0 The roots are in ratio 3:2 Hence,let roots of the equations are 3α and 2α. Applying condition for sum and product of the roots, 3α+2α=−12m​ and 3α×2α=125​⇒α2=725​⇒α=±62​5​​And m=−60α ⇒m=±510​Hence, A is the correct option.
