![let x_1 −d, x_1 ; x_1 +d is the roots of the given equation . we have ⇒(x_1 −d)+x_1 +(x_1 +d) = p [ Vietha′s rule] ⇒3x_1 = p →x_1 = (p/3), so we get ((p/3))^3 −p((p/3))^2 +q((p/3))−r=0 (p^3 /(27))−(p^3 /9)+((pq)/3)−r=0 −2p^3 +9pq−27r=0 27p^3 −9pq+27r=0](https://www.tinkutara.com/question/Q106140.png)
