Question

if alpha and beta are the zeros of the polynomial x^2-5x+k such that alpha - beta =1. Find the value of k?​

Answer 1

Answer:

  (alpha) * (beta) = c/a

where,

  a,b,c are the coefficients of equation (ax^2+bx+c=0)

                   1 = k /1  =>> k=1

I hope it helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\alpha + \beta = 5 \: \\ \alpha \beta = k\\ \alpha - \beta = 1 \\ 2 \alpha = 6 \\ \alpha = 3 \\ \beta = 2 \\ k = 2 \times 3 \\ k = 6 \\ \\ pls \: mark \: it \: as \: brainliest \:$
