Given that the roots of the equation.x2+ax+b=0 are 6,2, when the value of a is wrong.

i.e.,  the product of the roots is b=12 

Given that the roots of the equation x2+ax+b=0 are -2,9, when the value of b is wrong

i.e., the sum of the roots is a=--2+9=-7

Therefore, the original equation is x27x+12=0

On factorizing, the roots of above equation are  3,4
