The correct answer is:
has one of roots equal to \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Hints: \(\frac{1}{4} \mathrm{a}+\frac{1}{2} \mathrm{~b}+\mathrm{c}=0\)
\(\begin{aligned}
& \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 a+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) b+c=0 \\
& \therefore x=\frac{1}{2}
\end{aligned}\)
\(\begin{aligned}
& \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2 a+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) b+c=0 \\
& \therefore x=\frac{1}{2}
\end{aligned}\)
