Question 130
What is the value of m in the quadratic equation $$x^{2}+mx+24=0$$ if one of its roots is $$\frac{3}{2}$$
Solution
Putting $$x=\frac{3}{2}$$ in the quadratic equation : $$x^{2}+mx+24=0$$
=> $$(\frac{3}{2})^2+m(\frac{3}{2})+24=0$$
=> $$\frac{9}{4}+24+\frac{3m}{2}=0$$
=> $$\frac{3m}{2}=-(\frac{96+9}{4})$$
=> $$m=\frac{-105}{4}\times\frac{2}{3}$$
=> $$m=\frac{-35}{2}$$
=> Ans - (D)
