Question

12. If one of the zeroes of a quadratic
polynomial of the form x2 + ax + b is the
negative of the other, then it
(a) has no linear term and the constant
term is negative.
(b) has no linear term and the constant
term is positive.
(c) can have a linear term but the
constant term is negative.
(d) can have a linear term but the
constant term is positive.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) Let p(x) = x2 + ax + b. Hence, if one of the zeroes of quadratic polynomial p(x) is the negative of the other, then it has no linear term i.e., a = O and the constant term is negative i.e., b< 0. ... Hence, it has no linear term and the constant term is negative
