ax^2 +bx+c=0 { (x_1 ),(x_2 ) :} →(x_1 /x_2 ) = (3/4) { ((x_1 =3k)),((x_2 =4k)) :} → { ((x_1 +x_2 =−(b/a)⇒k=−(b/(7a)))),((x_1 .x_2 =(c/a)⇒c=12ak^2 )) :} ⇒c=12a(−(b/(7a)))^2 ⇒49a^2 c=12ab ⇒49ac=12b

Let the roots are 3α & 4α 3α+4α=−(b/a) ∧ 3α.4α=(c/a) 7α=−(b/a) ∧ 12α^2 =(c/a) ⇒12(−(b/(7a)))^2 =(c/a)⇒((12b^2 )/(49a^2 ))=(c/a) ⇒12b^2 =49ac

$${Let}\:{the}\:{roots}\:{are}\:\mathrm{3}\alpha\:\&\:\mathrm{4}\alpha \\ $$$$\mathrm{3}\alpha+\mathrm{4}\alpha=−\frac{{b}}{{a}}\:\wedge\:\mathrm{3}\alpha.\mathrm{4}\alpha=\frac{{c}}{{a}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{7}\alpha=−\frac{{b}}{{a}}\:\wedge\:\mathrm{12}\alpha^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{{c}}{{a}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{12}\left(−\frac{{b}}{\mathrm{7}{a}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{{c}}{{a}}\Rightarrow\frac{\mathrm{12}{b}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{49}{a}^{\mathrm{2}} }=\frac{{c}}{{a}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{12}{b}^{\mathrm{2}} =\mathrm{49}{ac} \\ $$$$ \\ $$
