find the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial x²+4x-12 and verify relationship between the zeroes and the coefficient |
Answer» EXPLANATION.→ Zeroes of the QUADRATIC POLYNOMIAL → Verify relationship between the zeroes and coefficient. → Factories into middle term split. → x² + 4x - 12 = 0 → x² + 6x - 2x - 12 = 0 → x(x + 6 ) - 2 ( x + 6 ) = 0 → ( x - 2 ) ( x + 6 ) = 0 → x = 2 and x = -6 → Sum = 2 + (-6) = -4. → Products = 2(-6) = -12. → Verify the relationship.→ sum of zeroes of quadratic equation. → a + B = -b/a → a + b = -4 → products of zeroes of quadratic equation. → ab = c/a → ab = -12 → Hence proved. |
