Question on: WAEC Mathematics - 2009

Find the quadratic equation whose roots are -(\frac{1}{2}) and 3

A
2x2 - 2x + 3 = 0
B
2x2 - 2x - 3 = 0
C
2x2 - 5x + 3 = 0
D
3x2 - 5x - 3 = 0
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: D

x = (\frac{-1}{2})

x = 3

2x = -1, x = 3; 2x + 1 = 0

x - 3 = 0

(2x + 1)(x - 3) = 0

2x2 - 6x + x - 3 = 0

2x2 - 5x - 3 = 0
