Compare given equation with px^2+qx+r=0 We get p=c^2-ab, q=-2(a^2-bc), r=b^2-ac Given roots are equal discriminate q^2-4pr=0 4(a^2-bc)^2-4(c^2-ab)(b^2-ac)=0 a^4+b^2c^2-2a^2bc-c^2b^2+ab^3+ac^3-a^2bc=0 a^4-3a^2bc+ab^3+ac^3=0 a(a^3+b^3+c^3-3abc)=0 a=0, a^3+b^3+c^3-3abc=0 a=0, a^3+b^3+c^3=3abc

Two numbers are in the ratio 5:6. If 8 is subtracted from each of the numbers, the ratio becomes 4 : 5. Find the numbers?
Let numbers are 5x and 6x (5x-8)/ (6x-8) = (4/5) => 5(5x-8)= 4(6x-8) => 25x-40 = 24x-32 => 25x-24x= 40-32 => x= 8 Two numbers are 5x 8= 40 and 6x8 = 48
