Answer:
p = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one root of the eqn. be alpha . Other root is 1/alpha .
We know that product of both roots of an quadratic eqn. is c/a where "c" is the co-efficient of the constant & "a" is the co-efficient of x^2.
Here "c" is p-4 & "a" is 4. And the product of roots is 1 ( ∵ prdouct of a number and its reciprocal is 1 )
