Question

Determine the quadratic equation if the sum of the riits is 5 and the product of the roots is-4.

Answer 1

Answer:

$a(x^2 - 5x - 4)$ OR $ax^2 - 5ax - 4a$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation = $ax^2 + bx + c$

sum of roots = -b/a = 5

=> b = -5a

product of roots = c/a = -4

=> c = -4a

Therefore, equation is $ax^2 - 5ax - 4a$

= $a(x^2 - 5x - 4)$
