Solution

The correct option is A -3 and -5
Given, the roots of x2+8x+15 = 0 are -3 and -5.
The equation 6x2+48x+90 = 0 can be written as
6×(x2+8x+15) = 0
x2+8x+15 = 0.
Hence, the roots of 6x2+48x+120 = 0 are -3 and -5.
The roots of a quadratic equation do not change when it is multiplied by a constant non-zero real number.
