Question

if both x-2 and x-1/2 are factors of polynomial ax^2 +5x +c, prove that a=c​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a very easy question. Just use the knowledge of zeros and coefficient

since   x-2 and x-1/2 are factors of polynomial ax^2 +5x +c,

x=2 and x=1/2 are zeros

we know that,

2*1/2=c/a

1=c/a

a=c

there you go
