Let f(x) = 3x2 + 5x – 2 By splitting the middle term, we get f(x) = 3x2 + (6 – 1)x – 2
[∵ 5 = 6 – 1 and 2×3 = 6]
= 3x2 + 6x – x – 2
= 3x(x + 2) – 1(x + 2)
= (3x – 1) (x + 2) On putting f(x) = 0 ,
we get (3x – 1) (x + 2) = 0 ⇒ 3x – 1 = 0 or x + 2 = 0 x = 1/3 or x = – 2
Thus, the zeroes of the given polynomial 3x2 + 5x – 2 are – 2 and 1/3.
Verification So, the relationship between the zeroes and the coefficients is verified
