Question

Form a quadratic equation whose roots are 4 and -12

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4 - 12 = - 8 and 4*(-12) = - 48

the equation is

x^2 + 8x - 48 = 0.

Answer 2

Answer:

X^2 + 8x - 48 = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Root 1 = 4

Root 2nd = - 12

Sum pf roots = 4 + (-12) = - 8

Product of roots = 4 ☓ - 12 = - 48.

A quadratic equation in x =

x^2 - (sum of roots) x+ product of roots = 0

➡️ X^2 - (-8) x + (-48) = 0

➡️ X^2 + 8x - 48 = 0
