Correct Answer: Option E
Explanation:
The roots of the function are 1 and \(\frac{1}{3}\)
sum of roots = -1 + \(\frac{1}{3}\) = -\(\frac{2}{3}\)
product of roots = -1 x \(\frac{1}{3}\) = -\(\frac{1}{3}\)
x2 - (sum of roots)x + (product of roots) = 0
x2 + (-\(\frac{2}{3}\))x - (-\(\frac{1}{3}\)) = 0
x2 + \(\frac{2x}{3}\) - \(\frac{1}{3}\) = 0
3x2 + 2x - 1 = 0
The roots of the function are 1 and \(\frac{1}{3}\)
sum of roots = -1 + \(\frac{1}{3}\) = -\(\frac{2}{3}\)
product of roots = -1 x \(\frac{1}{3}\) = -\(\frac{1}{3}\)
x2 - (sum of roots)x + (product of roots) = 0
x2 + (-\(\frac{2}{3}\))x - (-\(\frac{1}{3}\)) = 0
x2 + \(\frac{2x}{3}\) - \(\frac{1}{3}\) = 0
3x2 + 2x - 1 = 0
