Answer :
The zeroes of the polynomial are 2 and -3/2
Given :
- Polynomial, f(x)=2x²-x-6
To find :
- Zeroes of the polynomial
- Relationship between zeroes and coefficients
Solution :
Let's find the zeroes of the polynomial by splitting middle term
f(x) = 2x²-x-6
>> 2x²-x-6 = 0
2x² - 4x + 3x - 6 = 0
2x(x-2) + 3(x-2) = 0
(x-2)(2x+3) = 0
⇒ (x-2) = 0 : x = 2
⇒ 2x+3 = 0 ; x = -3/2
The zeroes are 2 and -3/2
Relationship between zeroes and coefficient :
polynomial 2x²-x-6 is of the form ax²+bx+c
a = 2, b = -1, c = -6
>> Sum of zeroes = 2 + (-3/2)
= 2 - 3/2
= (4-3)/2
= 1/2
= -(-1)/2
= -b/a = -(x coefficient)/x² coefficient
>> Product of zeroes = 2(-3/2)
= -6/2
= c/a = constant/x² coefficient
