x^2 +px+12:Roots α , 4  product of roots:4α=12⇒α=3 (other root)  sum of roots:4+3=−p⇒p=−7  x^2 +px+q=0⇒x^2 −7x+q=0  Roots:β &β  sum of roots:2β=−7⇒β=−(7/2)  product of roots:β^2 =q⇒q=(−(7/2))^2                                       =((49)/4)

5x^2 +13x+k=0  Roots: α,(1/α)  product of roots: α×(1/α)=k⇒k=1

$$\mathrm{5}{x}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{13}{x}+{k}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${Roots}:\:\alpha,\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\alpha} \\ $$$${product}\:{of}\:{roots}:\:\alpha×\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\alpha}={k}\Rightarrow{k}=\mathrm{1} \\ $$
