In part 3, should it the 2 equations be 2-2a-b=0 and 6-4a+b=0 , therefore a=2 and b=2?

can u do (iii) plzzzz :)
Like AAEldar said, we need the rest of the question. Probably the easiest way to do it however (I'm guessing as I don't know the specific question), would be to manipulate the sums of roots inside each of the brackets. For example, if alpha+beta+gamma=9, then alpha+beta=9-gamma and then you can sub that in.

How does alpha + beta + gamma = 0
:S
