Find the zeroes of the following quadratic polynomial and varify the relentonship between the zeroes and the corfficent : f(x)=6x^-3-7x​

Answer»

AnswEr:-

ZEROS of polynomial = -1/3 & 3/2

\rule{200}{1}

Here, given polynomial is :

f(x) = 6x² - 3 - 7x = 0

We can find zeros of polynomial by factorization method:-

⇒ 6x² - 3 - 7x = 0

⇒ 6x² - 7x - 3 = 0

⇒ 6x² - 9x + 2x - 3 = 0

⇒ 3x(2x - 3) + 1(2x - 3) = 0

⇒ (3x + 1)(2x - 3) = 0

⇒ 3x = -1 or 2x = 3

x = -1/3 or x = 3/2

Therefore,

\therefore\underline{\textsf{Zeros of polynomial = {\textbf{-1/3 \& 3/2 }}}}

\rule{200}{1}

Verification:-

Here,

  • α = -1/3
  • β = 3/2

And,

  • Coefficient of x²(a) = 6
  • Coefficient of x(b) = -7
  • Constant term(c) = -3

Relationship 1:-

Sum of zeros = -b/a

⇒ -1/3 + 3/2 = -(-7)/6

⇒ (-2 + 9)/6 = 7/6

7/6 = 7/6 [HENCE VERIFIED!]

Relationship 2:-

PRODUCT of zeros = c/a

⇒ -1/3 × 3/2 = -3/6

-1/2 = -1/2 [Hence verified!]

Therefore,

Relation between the zeros and COEFFICIENTS are verified!
