Question

5. Write a quadratic polynomial, sum of whose zeroes is 2 and product is -8.​

Answer 1

Answer:

sum of zeros = -b/a = 2

product of zeros = c/a = -8

x^2 - ( sum of roots ) x + product of roots = 0

x^2 -(2+(-8))x + (2*(-8)) =0

x^2-(-6)x +(-16)=0

x^2 +6x-16=0

Answer 2

Answer:

Quadratic polynomial is given by x2 - (a + b)x + ab x2 - 2x - 8
