Question

If α and 1/α are zeros of a polynomial 2x^2 - x + 8k find the value of k?

Answer 1

Answer:

the degree for zero polynomial is zero then square is equal to 1

Answer 2

Answer:

k = 1/4 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

here, a= 2; b= -1 and c= 8k

we know that product of the roots = c/a

α × 1/α = 8k/2

1 = 8k/2

8k= 2

k= 2/8

k = 1/4

Thus the value of k= 1/4
