MCQ
A quadratic equation whose one root is $3$ is :
  • A
    $ x^2-5 x-6=0 $
  • B
    $ x^2-6 x-6=0 $
  • $ x^2-5 x+6=0 $
  • D
    $ x^2+6 x-5=0 $

Answer

Correct option: C.
$ x^2-5 x+6=0 $
since $3$ is the root of the equation $, x = 3$ must satisfy the equation.
Applying $x = 3$ in the equation $ x^2-5 x+6=0 $
gives, $(3)^2- 5(3) + 6 = 0$
$\Rightarrow 9 - 15 + 6 =0$
$\Rightarrow 15 - 15 = 0$
$\Rightarrow 0 = 0$
$\Rightarrow \text{L.H.S. = R.H.S}$
$ x^2-5 x+6=0 $​​​​​ is a required equation which has $3$ as root.
