Solution
we
are given
ax^2
+ bx+ c = 0 \cdots(1)
let
the roots be t and 3t
so
we have (x-t)(x-3t) = 0
or
x^2 – 4tx + 3t^2 = 0\cdots(2)
the
roots of(1) and (2) are same so coefficients are proportionate
so
\dfrac{a}{1}
= \dfrac{-b}{4t} = \dfrac{c}{3t^2}
we
need to eliminate t
4at
= -b\cdots(3)
and
-b = \dfrac{4c}{3t}\cdots(4)
multiplying
(3) with (4) we get
b^2
= \dfrac{16ac}{3} or 3b^2 = 16ac
