Quadratic equation

A quadratic equation is in the form:

ax² + bx + c = 0

where a, b, c are constants integers.

Given the roots of the equation as 1 and 2 - 8i, hence the third root is 2 + 8i. Complex roots are in conjugate pairs, hence:

y = 1 or y = 2 - 8i or y = 2 + 8i

(y - 1) = 0; y - 2 + 8i = 0 and y - 2 - 8i = 0

(y - 1)(y - 2 + 8i)(y - 2-8i) = 0

y³ - 5y² + 72y - 68 = 0

The value of a in y³ - 5y² + 72y - 68 = 0 is -5
