The roots of a quadratic equation are (\frac{4}{3}) and -(\frac{3}{7}). Find the equation

A
21x2 - 19x - 12 = 0
B
21x2 + 37x - 12 = 0
C
21x2 - x + 12 = 0
D
21x2 + 7x - 4 = 0

Correct Option: A

Let x = (\frac{4}{3}), x = -(\frac{3}{7})

Then 3x = 4, 7x = -3

3x - 4 = 0, 7x + 3 = 0

(3x - 4)(7x + 3) = 0

21x2 + 9x - 28x - 12 = 0

21x2 - 19x - 12 = 0
