Question

Find a quadratic polynomial each with given numbers as the sum and the product of its zeroes respectively 1/4 ,-1 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sum of the zeros

= -b/a

= 1/4

Product of the zeros

= c/a

= -1/1

= (-1×4) / (1×4)

= -4/4

So,

a= 4

b= -1

c= -4

Hence the quadratic polynomial is

4x^2 - x - 4 =0
