, find a quadratic polynomial whose sum and product respectively of the zeroes are as given. Also, find the zeroes of these polynomials by factorization 8/4 and 4/3
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a and b be the two zeroes of the quadratic polynomial.
Given:
- a+b=8/4=2.
- ab=4/3.
To find: Quadratic polynomial and its roots by factorisation method.
Formula of quadratic polynomial:
By substituting the given in formula:
The required quadratic equation is:
3x²-6x+4=0
A quadratic polynomial formed for the given sum and product of zeros is given by:
f(x) = x2 + -(sum of zeros) x + (product of roots)
Here, the sum of zeros is = -8/3 and product of zero= 4/3
Thus,
The required polynomial f(x) is,
⇒ x
2
- (-8/3)x + (4/3)
⇒ x
2 + 8/3x + (4/3)
So, to find the zeros we put f(x) = 0
⇒ x
2 + 8/3x + (4/3) = 0
⇒ 3x2 + 8x + 4 = 0
⇒ 3x2 + 6x + 2x + 4 = 0
⇒ 3x(x + 2) + 2(x + 2) = 0
⇒ (x + 2) (3x + 2) = 0
⇒ (x + 2) = 0 and, or (3x + 2) = 0
Therefore, the two zeros are -2 and -2/3.
