p(x) = x² + x - 12
☛ x² + 4x - 3x - 12
☛ x( x + 4) - 3( x + 4)
☛ (x + 4)(x - 3)
Zeroes are -4 and 3
p(x) = x² + x - 12
☛ Sum of zeroes = - (coefficient of x) / (coefficient of x² )
☛ -4 + 3 = - ( 1) / 1
☛ -1 = -1
Also,
☛ Product of zeroes = - ( constant term ) / (coefficient of x² )
☛ -4 × 3 = - 12/1
☛ -12 = -12
Hence, Proved.
