form a quadratic polynomial whose zeroes are -4 and -7.
Answers
Answer :-
Polynomial whose zeroes are - 4 and - 7 is x² + 11x + 28.
Explanation :-
Given
Zeroes of the polynomial are - 4 and - 7
So
- α = - 4
- β = - 7
Sum of zeroes = α + β = - 4 + (-7) = - 4 - 7 = - 11
Product of zeroes = αβ = - 4(-7) = 28
Quadratic polynomial ax² + bx + c
= k{x² - x(α + β) + αβ}
[Where k ≠ 0]
By substituting the values
= k{x² - x(-11) + 28}
= k(x² + 11x + 28)
When k = 1
= 1(x² + 11x + 28)
= x² + 11x + 28
∴ the polynomial whose zeroes are - 4 and - 7 is x² + 11x + 28.
x² + 11x + 28
Given :-
Zeroes of polynomials are - 4 and - 7.
To find :-
We need to form a quadratic polynomial whose roots will be - 4 and - 7.
Solution :-
Let α and β be the roots of the quadratic polynomial in variable x.
Let α = - 4
Let β = - 7
•°• Sum of roots,α + β = (-4) + (-7)
α + β = - 4 - 7
α + β = - 11 ----> (1)
Product of roots, αβ = (-4) (-7)
αβ = 28 ----> (2)
Forming the quadratic polynomial,
=> x² - (α + β)x + (αβ)
Substitute the appropriate values of α+β and αβ,
=> x² - ( -11)x + (28)
=> x² + 11x + 28
•°• The quadratic polynomial whose zeroes are - 4 and - 7 is :
- x² + 11x + 28
