answer is attached above also
Given
f(x) = 6x2 – 7x – 3
To find the zeros
Let us put f(x) = 0
⇒ 6x2 – 7x – 3 = 0
⇒ 6x2 – 9x + 2x – 3 = 0
⇒ 3x(2x – 3) + 1(2x – 3) = 0
⇒ (2x – 3)(3x + 1) = 0
⇒ 2x – 3 = 0
x = 3/2
⇒ 3x + 1 = 0
⇒ x = -1/3
It gives us 2 zeros, for x = 3/2 and x = -1/3
Hence, the zeros of the quadratic equation are 3/2 and -1/3.
Now, for verification
Sum of zeros = – coefficient of x / coefficient of x2
3/2 + (-1/3) = – (-7) / 6 7/6 = 7/6
Product of roots = constant / coefficient of x2
3/2 x (-1/3) = (-3) / 6 -1/2 = -1/2
Therefore, the relationship between zeros and their coefficients is verified.
Answer:
p(X)=6x^2-7x-3
p(0)=6x^2-9x+2x-3=0
3x(2x-3)+1(2x-3)=0
X=-1/3&X=3/2
RELATIONSHIP
-1/3+3/2=7/6=-COEEFICINT OF X/COEFFICIENT OF X^2
-1/3×3/2=-3/6=CONSTANT TERM/COEFFICIENT OF X^2
