Find the quadratic polynomial, the sum of whose zeroes is -5 and their product is 6. |
|
Answer» Let the required quadratic polynomial is ax2 + bx + c. … (1) Therefore, Sum of zeros is \(-\frac{b}{a}\) = −5 (given) ⇒ b = 5a. And product of zeros is \(\frac{c}{a}\) = 6 (given) ⇒ c = 6a. By putting the values of b and c in equation (1), we get the quadratic polynomial. ax2 + 5ax +6a = a(x2 + 5x + 6) Where a is any real number except zero. Hence, The required polynomial is a(x2+5x+6), a ≠ 0, a∈R. |
