Question

If α and β are zeros of p(x) =x² + x -1, then find 1/ α + 1/ β

Answer 1

Answer:  1

Step-by-step explanation:

α + β = -b/a= -coefficient of x/coefficient of x square = -1/1= -1

αβ=c/a=  constant/coefficient of x square= -1/1= -1

now,  1/ α + 1/ β= α + β/αβ

put the values from above

hence answer =-1/-1=1
