FIND THE ZEROS OF THE POLIYNOMIAL F(X)=6x^2+x-12 and verify the relationship
Answers
F(x) = 6x^2 + x - 12
6x^2 + x - 12 = 0
6x^2 + 9x- 8x - 12 = 0
3x(2x+3) - 4( 2x-3) = 0
(2x+3) ( 3x-4) = 0
2x+3 = 0
x = -3/2
3x - 4 = 0
x = 4/3
the zeroes are 4/3 and -3/2
Product of zeroes
αβ = c/a
4/3 x -3/2 = -12/6
-12/6 = -12/6
Sum of zeroes
α + β = -b/a
4/3 - 3/2 = -1/6
-1/6 = -1/6
Verified

this is the polynomial in the problem
now we need to find the zeros of F(x), there are many ways but I'll go with factoring
therefore, F(x) = (2x + 3) (3x - 4)
but if x is a zero of F(x), F(x) = 0
so,
that means either (2x+3) = 0 or (3x-4) = 0
or, x = -3/2 or x = 4/3
let's name them α = -3/2 and β = 4/3
now, the question says to verfy some relationship ... but it is not clear which relation, so I assume you meant relationship of the coefficients of the polynomial and it's zeros
so let's find the coefficients
a = 6 (coefficient of x^2)
b = 1 (coefficient of x^1)
c = -12 (coefficient of x^0, or the constant)
there are two relations between the coefficients and the zeros (for quadratic polynomials),
(i) α + β = -b / a
(ii) α * β = c / a
so let's verify them,
(i) LHS
RHS
LHS = RHS, therefore (i) is verified
in a similar fashion, (ii) can be verified
(note: if you need to verify some other relation, just put the appropriate values in the variables than evaluate the correct equations ....)
please rate 5 star, say a thanks (it really makes me happy) and if possible, mark as the brainliest
