उत्तर

Given, quadratic equation is: 9x2 + 6kx + 4 = 0 

 Now, the given equation has equal roots, so D = 0

⇒ b2 - 4ac = 0

⇒ (6k)2 - 4 × 9 × 4 = 0

⇒ 36k2 - 36 × 4 = 0

⇒ 36k2 = 36 × 4

⇒ k2 = 4

⇒ k = ± 2

Case 1: When k = 2, we have the quadratic equation as:

9x2 + 6(2)x + 4 = 0

⇒ 9x2 + 12x + 4 = 0

⇒ (3x)2 + 2 × 2 × 3x + (2)2 = 0

⇒ (3x + 2)2 = 0

⇒ 3x + 2 = 0

⇒ x = -`2/3`

Case 2: When k = -2, we have the quadratic equation as:

9x2 + 6(-2)x + 4 = 0

⇒ 9x2 - 12x + 4 = 0

⇒ (3x)2 - 2 × 2 × 3x + (2)2 = 0

⇒ (3x - 2)2 = 0

⇒ 3x - 2 = 0

⇒ x = `2/3`

So, two roots of the quadratic equation are `2/3 and -2/3 or ±2/3`.
