उत्तर
`(2)/(3)` and – 3 are the roots of the equation px2+ 7x + q = 0
Substituting the value of x = and – 3 respectively, we get
`"p"(2/3)^2 + 7(2/3) + "q"` = 0
⇒ `(4)/(9)"p" + (14)/(3) + "q"` = 0
⇒ 4p + 42 + 9q = 0
⇒ 4p + 9q = -42 ...(i)
and
p(-3)2 + 7(-3) + q = 0
9p - 21 + q = 0
⇒ 9p + q = 21 ...(ii)
q = 21 - 9p
Substituting the value of q in (i)
4p + 9(21 - 9p) = -42
4p + 189 - 81p = -42
-77p = -42 - 189 = -231
p = `(-231)/(-77)` = 3
∴ q
= 21 - 9 x 3
= 21 - 27
= -6
∴ p = 3, q = -6.

Complete the following activity to determine the nature of the roots of the quadratic equation x2 + 2x – 9 = 0 :
Solution :
Compare x2 + 2x – 9 = 0 with ax2 + bx + c = 0
a = 1, b = 2, c = `square`
∴ b2 – 4ac = (2)2 – 4 × `square` × `square`
Δ = 4 + `square` = 40
∴ b2 – 4ac > 0
∴ The roots of the equation are real and unequal.
