    If\[a\ne \beta \]and\[{{\alpha }^{2}}=5\alpha -3,\,\,{{\beta }^{2}}=5\beta -3\]then the equation having \[\alpha /\beta \] and \[\beta /\alpha \] as its roots is:

    A) \[3{{x}^{2}}+19x+3=0\]

    B) \[3{{x}^{2}}-19x+3=0\]

    C) \[3{{x}^{2}}-19x-3=0\]

    D) \[{{x}^{2}}-16x+1=0\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We have,\[{{\alpha }^{2}}=5\alpha -3\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{\alpha }^{2}}-5\alpha +3=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\alpha =\frac{5\pm \sqrt{13}}{2}\] Similarly,\[{{\beta }^{2}}=5\beta -3\] \[\Rightarrow \]                  \[\beta =\frac{5\pm \sqrt{13}}{2}\] Since,    \[\alpha \ne \beta \] \[\therefore \]  \[\alpha =\frac{5+\sqrt{13}}{2}\]and\[\beta =\frac{5-\sqrt{13}}{2}\] or            \[\alpha =\frac{5-\sqrt{13}}{2}\] and        \[\beta =\frac{5+\sqrt{13}}{2}\] \[\therefore \]  \[{{\alpha }^{2}}+{{\beta }^{2}}=\frac{50+26}{4}=19\] and        \[\alpha \beta =\frac{1}{4}(25-13)=3\] Thus, the equation having\[\frac{\alpha }{\beta }\]and\[\frac{\beta }{\alpha }\]as its roots is                 \[{{x}^{2}}-x\left( \frac{\alpha }{\beta }+\frac{\beta }{\alpha } \right)+\frac{\alpha \beta }{\alpha \beta }=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[{{x}^{2}}-x\left( \frac{{{\alpha }^{2}}+{{\beta }^{2}}}{\alpha \beta } \right)+1=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[3{{x}^{2}}-19x+3=0\]
