      Question

      If the roots of the quadratic equation 6m² + 7m + 8 = 0

      are α and β, then what is the value of [(1/α) + (1/β)]?
      A 9/8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B -7/8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 4/9 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D -5/9 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Given: α, β are the roots of 6m² + 7m + 8 = 0. We know: α + β = -b/a = -7/6 αβ = c/a = 8/6 = 4/3 Now, Thus, (1/α) + (1/β) = -7/8 .
