If $a$ and $b$ are roots of $x^2 - px + q = 0$,then $\frac{1}{a} + \frac{1}{b} = $

If the harmonic mean between the roots of $(5+\sqrt{2}) x^2-b x+(8+2 \sqrt{5})=0$ is $4$,then the value of $b$ is

If $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are the roots of the equation $x^2 - a(x + 1) - b = 0$,then $(\alpha + 1)(\beta + 1) = $

Let $a$ be a non-zero real number. If the equation whose roots are the squares of the roots of the cubic equation $x^3 - ax^2 + ax - 1 = 0$ is identical to the original cubic equation,then $a =$

If $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ are the roots of the equation $x^3+4x+1=0$,then $(\alpha+\beta)^{-1}+(\beta+\gamma)^{-1}+(\gamma+\alpha)^{-1}$ is equal to

Suppose $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ are roots of $x^3+x^2+2x+3=0$. If $f(x)=0$ is a cubic polynomial equation whose roots are $\alpha+\beta, \beta+\gamma, \gamma+\alpha$,then $f(x)$ is equal to
