Question

5. If the value of one zero is one more than the other Zero of polynomial plx)= x + 5x +k
then find the value of k.
​

Answer 1

Let Alpha be the one zero of the given polynomial.

Then the other will be 1/Alpha

P(X) = 5X²+13X+K

Here,

A = 5 , B = 13 and C= K

Product of zeros = C/A

Alpha × 1/Alpha = K/5

1 = K/5

K=5
