Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) -12

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given quadratic equation is \(x^2+4 k x+12 e^{3 \log k}-1=0\) According to given information , Product of the roots \(=323\) \(\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \quad 12 e^{3 \log k}-1=323 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad 12 k^3=324 \Rightarrow k^3=27 \Rightarrow k=3 \end{aligned}\) So, sum…
