If \(\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x + 1} = \sqrt{2x + 1}\), find the possible values of x.
If \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are the roots of the equation \(2x^{2} - 6x + 5 = 0\), evaluate \(\frac{\beta}{\alpha} + \frac{\alpha}{\beta}\).
Given that \(f(x) = 2x^{3} - 3x^{2} - 11x + 6\) and \(f(3) = 0\), factorize f(x).
Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to \(2y + 5x - 6 = 0\) and bisects the line joining the points P(4, 3) and Q(-6, 1).
