7 0

Answer:

The value of k is -21

Step-by-step explanation:

ax² + bx + c = 0

Sum of the roots = -b/a

3x² + kx + 1 = 0

= sum of the roots = -k/3

-k/3 = 7

Now, Multiply both side by (-3) we get,

(-3)-k/3 = 7(-3)

k = -21

Thus, The value of k is -21

\cfrac{aP}{Pb} = \cfrac{1}{3}\implies \cfrac{a}{b} = \cfrac{1}{3}\implies 3a=1b\implies 3(-1,2)=1(7,14)
