Question 9

(a) The roots of the equation \(x^{2} + mx + 11 = 0\) are \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\), where m is a constant. If \(\alpha^{2} + \beta^{2} = 27\), find the values of m.

(b) The line \(2x + 3y = 1\) intersects the circle \(2x^{2} + 2y^{2} + 4x + 9y - 9 = 0\) at points P and Q where Q lies in the fourth quadrant. Find the coordinates of P and Q.
