Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1. Find the zeroes of the following quadratic polynomials and verify the relationship between the zeroes and the coefficients.
(i) x² – 2x – 8
1. Find the zeroes of the following quadratic polynomials and verify the relationship between the zeroes and the coefficients.
(i) x² – 2x – 8
(i)
Factorize the equation
Compare the equation with ax² + bx + c = 0
We get
a = 1 ,b=-2 c= -8
To factorize the value we have to find two value which
sum is equal to b =-2
and product is a x c = 1 x -8 = -8
2 and -4 are such number which
sum is 2-4 = - 2
product is 2*-4 = - 8
So we can write middle term -2 x = 2 x – 4 x
We get
x²+2x-4x-8=0
x (x + 2)-4(x + 2) = 0
(x+2) (x-4) = 0
First zero
x + 2 = 0
x = -2
Second zero
x-4 = 0
x = 4
sum of zero -2 + 4 = 2
product of zero 2 x -4 = -8
For a equation ax² + bx + c = 0 , if zeroare α and β ,
Plug the values of a , b and c we get
Sum of zeros -b/a = -(-2/1) = 2
Product of zeros c/a =-8/1 = -8
