Answer:
Find the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial 4x^2+8x and verify the relationship between the zeroes and the coefficients
4x² + 8x
= 4x ( x + 2)
To find Zeroes
4x ( x + 2) = 0
=> x = 0 & x = -2
Sum of Zeroes = 0 + (-2) = -2
Product of zeroes = 0 * (-2) = 0
Comparing 4x² + 8x
with ax² + bx + c
a = 4 , b = 8 , c = 0
Sum of Zeroes = -b/1 = - 8/4 = -2
Product of Zeroes = c/a = 0/4 = 0
Sum & product of zeroes relationship is verified as results matches.
Step-by-step explanation:
S O L U T I O N :
We have quadratic polynomial f(x) = 4x² + 8x & zero of the polynomial f(x) = 0.
→ 4x² + 8x = 0
→ 4(x² + 2x) = 0
→ 4x(x + 2) = 0
→ x + 2 = 0/4x
→ x + 2 = 0
→ x = -2 Or x = 0
∴ α = -2 & β = 0 are two zeroes of the given polynomial .
As we know that given quadratic polynomial compared with ax² + bx + c;
- a = 4
- b = 8
- c = 0
Now,
Thus,
The relationship between zeroes & coefficient are verified .
