If a new equation is formed by taking reciprocals of the roots of (x^2-7x+10=0), which monic equation is obtained?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: (x^2-\frac{7}{10}x+\frac{1}{10}=0)
The old sum is (7) and product is (10). The reciprocal roots have sum (\frac{7}{10}) and product (\frac{1}{10}).
