If \(\alpha, \beta\) are the roots of the equation \(x^2+3 x+\mathrm{k}=0\) and \(\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}, \beta+\frac{1}{\beta}\) are the roots of the equation \(4 x^2+p x+18=0\) then k satisfies the equation

  1. A \(2 x^2-13 x+20=0\)
  2. B \(x^2-5 x+6=0\)
  3. C \(2 x^2-7 x+3=0\)
  4. D \(x^2-8 x+15=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2 x^2-13 x+20=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given: \(x^2+3x+k=0 \Rightarrow \alpha+\beta=-3, \alpha\beta=k\) Given: \(4x^2+px+18=0\) roots are \(\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}, \beta+\frac{1}{\beta}\) Product of roots: \(\left(\alpha+\frac{1}{\alpha}\right)\left(\beta+\frac{1}{\beta}\right) = \frac{18}{4} = \frac{9}{2}\)…
