Directions: Answer the questions based on the information given below.
Equation (i) : x2 - 7x + t = 0
Equation (ii) : y2 - 4y + (t - 9) = 0
Roots of equation (i) are 'p' and 'q' and the roots of equation (ii) 'p' and '(q - p)' respectively.
Had equation (ii) been multiplied with 2n and 1 been added to the smallest root of the resulting quadratic equation then find the resultant number obtained from this process?

- Let's start with Equation (i): x2−7x+t=0.
- The roots are p and q.
- Solving gives: p+q=7 and pq=t.
- Now, look at Equation (ii): y2−4y+(t−9)=0.
- The roots should be p and (q−p).
- By Vieta's formulas:
- Sum of roots: p+(q−p)=q=4
- Product of roots: p(q−p)=t−9.
- Using p+q=7 and q=4, we find p=3.
- Substituting p=3 back, pq=t becomes: 3×4=t, thus t=12.
- Equation (ii) now becomes: y2−4y+3=0.
- Roots are: y=1 and y=3.
- Multiply Equation (ii) by 2n:
- Becomes 2ny2−8ny+6n=0.
- The smallest root is 1.
- Adding 1 gives: 1+1=2.
- The resultant number is: 2
