Find the zeros of the polynomial x²-7x+12 and find the relationship between the zeroes and coefficients?
Answers
Solution
Given :-
- Polynomial equation, x² - 7x +12 = 0
Find :-
- Zeroes of this Equation,
- Relationship between zeroes & uts coefficient
Explanation
Let,
- Zeroes be p & q
Using Factories Method .
==> x² - 7x + 12 = 0
==> x² - 4x - 3x + 12 = 0
==> x(x -4) - 3(x - 4) = 0
==> (x - 3)(x - 4) = 0
==> (x - 3) = 0. Or, x - 4 = 0
==> x = 3 Or, x = 4
Since,
- Zeroes be ,p = 3
- q = 4.

Now, Calculate relationship between zeroes & coefficient.
Using Formula
★ Sum of zeroes = -(Coefficient of x)/(coefficient of x²)
==> p + q = -(-7)/1
==> p + q = 7___________(1)
keep value of p & q,
==> 3 + 4 = 7
==> 7 = 7
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
__________________
Again,
★ Product of zeroes = (constant part)/(coefficient of x²)
==> p.q = 12/1
==> p.q = 12 __________(2)
keep value of p & q
==> 3 × 4 = 12
==> 12 = 12
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
That's Proved.
