If one root of the equation x² + ax + 3 = 0 is 1, then its other root is

Let the given equation has roots α and β

α = 1

Here a = 1, b = a and c = 3

Sum of the roots

α + β = – b/a = – a

product of the roots

α β = c/a = 3

1 β = 3

β = 3

If one root of the equation ax² + bx + c = 0 is three times the other, then b² :ac =
