d) alpha^k, beta^k

Answer:

αλ and βλ

Step-by-step explanation:

if alpha beta are the roots of ax² + bx + c = 0, then:

Sum of roots = α + β = -coefficient of x / coefficient of x² = -b/a

product of roots = αβ = Constant / coefficient of x² = c/a

Let x and y be the roots of ax² + bλx + cλ² = 0

Sum of roots = x + y = -coefficient of x / coefficient of x² = -bλ/a

product of roots = xy = Constant / coefficient of x² = cλ²/a

x + y = -bλ/a = λ(α + β) = αλ + βλ

Comparing terms gives:

x = αλ and y= βλ

Therefore the roots of ax² + bλx + cλ² = 0  are αλ and βλ
