Question

    If 6y² – 13y + 6 = 0, then find the sum of the two

    roots of the equation.
    A –1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C –13 /6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 13/6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    6y² – 13y + 6=0 6y² – 4y-9y+6=0 2y(3y-2)-3(3y-2) =0 (2y-3) (3y-2) =0 When 2y-3=0 Y=3/2 And 3y-2=0 Then y=2/3 Product of roots =3/2+2/3 =13/6
