Answer:

[tex]x^2-x-1=0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]x_2[/tex] be the roots of the required quadratic equation.

Then the equation is formed using:

[tex]x^2-(sum\:of\:roots)x+product\:of\:roots=0[/tex]

or

[tex]x^2-(x_1+x_2)x+x_1*x_2=0[/tex]

From the given information, sum of the roots is:

[tex]x_1+x_2=1[/tex] and the product is

[tex]x_1x_2=-1[/tex]

Therefore the required equation is

[tex]x^2-x-1=0[/tex]
