Question

Find the sum of the zeroes of the polynomial p^2- 5p - 24.

Answer 1

Answer:

Sum of the zeroes =-b/a

Step-by-step explanation:

Here a=1,b=-5,c=-24

Substitute - b/a=-(-5)/1=5

Therefore sum of the roots =5

Answer 2

Answer:

As we know

Step-by-step explanation:

(α + β) = -b/a

The sum of zeroes of the polynomial is 5 as — multiplied with — is “+”
