  1. A only real roots
  2. B only complex roots
  3. C two real and two complex roots
  4. D two real and two purely imaginary roots
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) only complex roots

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(6(x^2+1/x^2)-5(x+1/x)+13=0\) Let \(y=x+1/x \implies x^2+1/x^2=y^2-2\) \(6(y^2-2)-5y+13=0 \implies 6y^2-5y+1=0\) \(y = \frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2-4(6)(1)}}{2(6)} = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25-24}}{12} = \frac{5 \pm 1}{12}\) \(y_1=1/2, y_2=1/3\) For \(x^2-yx+1=0\), the discriminant…
