find the zeroes of the polynomial x^square + 8x +12 and verify rhe relations between the zeroes and the coeffcients
Answers
Answer:
x^2+8x+12
x^2+2x+6x+12
x(x+2)+6(x+2)
(x+6)(x+2)
x=-2 and. x=-6
sum=-b/a=-8
Zeroes sum=-2+(-6)=-8
product=c/a=12
zeroes product=-2*-6=12
hence verified

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given polynomial ;
x² + 8x + 12
We can factorise it by splitting the middle term. We need rwo numbers such that their product is 12, and the sum is 8.
Such two numbers can be 6 and 2.
Here we go ;
⇒ x² + 8x + 12
⇒ x² + (6 + 2)x + 12
⇒ x² + 6x + 2x + 12
⇒ x(x + 6) + 2(x + 6)
⇒ (x + 6)(x + 2)
By zero product rule ;
⇒ x = - 6 or x = - 2
Hence, the zeroes of the polynomial are (-6) and (-2).
_______________________
Verification ;
We know that -
Sum of zeroes =
⇒ - 6 - 2 =
⇒ -8 = - 8
Hence, it is verified.
_______________________
Again,
Product of zeroes =
⇒ - 6 * (-2) =
⇒ 12 = 12
Hence, it is verified.
_______________________
∴ The zeroes of the quadratic polynomial x² + 8x + 12 is (-6) and (-2).
