Work out the sum and product of the new roots. It's no where near as difficult as it looks at first sight. Have a go and see what you can do.

Have you been able to make a start on this?

Hint: work out the sum and product of the expressions they've given you, and see if you can relate these new expressions to things you know already.

It's a 2 month old thread where the OP never showed any working. Why post a full solution?

Because I’m afraid the asker cannot do it.

Have a read of the forum guidelines sticky at the top of the forum. Full solutions shouldn't be posted and the OP is expected to post some attempt. After 2 months, I guess they've sorted it/couldn't care.

Okay, I delete the post.
