Solution :
We have formula :
- Polynomial is x² + 3x + 2
Answer:
Required polynomial is x^2 + 3x + 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know,
Any quadratic equation / polynomial can be written as x^2 - Sx + P( = 0 ), with respect to x.
*where S represents the sum of roots and P represents the product of roots.
Therefore the equation for this case should be :
= > x^2 - ( - 3 )x + 2
= > x^2 + 3x + 2
Method - 2
Let the roots are a and b.
Given,
a + b = - 3 = > b = ( - 3 - a )
ab = 2
= > ( - 3 - a )a = 2
= > - ( a + 3 )a = 2
= > a^2 + 3a = - 2
= > a^2 + 3a + 2 = 0
= > a^2'+ a + 2a + 2 = 0
= > a( a + 1 ) + 2( a + 1 ) = 0
= > a = - 1 or - 2
Roots are : - 1 and - 2 or - 2 and - 1 { in both the cases roots are same }
Equation ( Quadratic) can be written as ( x - a )( x - b ) , where a and b are roots.
= > ( x - ( - 2 ))( x - ( - 1 ) )
= > x^2 + 3x + 2
