If the equation $2x^3 + 5x^2 - 4x - 12 = 0$ has a repeated root,then the constant term of the quadratic equation whose roots are the distinct roots of the given equation is

For what values of $k$ will the equation $x^2 - 2(1 + 3k)x + 7(3 + 2k) = 0$ have equal roots?

If $S = {m \in \mathbb{R} : x^2 - 2(1 + 3m)x + 7(3 + 2m) = 0}$ has distinct roots $\}$,then the number of elements in $S$ is

The quadratic equation $2x^{2} - (a^{3} + 8a - 1)x + a^{2} - 4a = 0$ has roots of opposite signs. Then,

The value of $3+\frac{1}{4+\frac{1}{3+\frac{1}{4+\frac{1}{3+\ldots \infty}}}}$ is equal to

If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ $(\alpha < \beta)$ are the roots of the equation $(-2+\sqrt{3})(|\sqrt{x}-3|) + (x-6\sqrt{x}) + (9-2\sqrt{3}) = 0$, $x \ge 0$, then $\sqrt{\frac{\beta}{\alpha}} + \sqrt{\alpha\beta}$ is equal to:
