Given :-
- one zero of the polynomial 5z² + 13z – p is reciprocal of the other .. Find P ?
Concept Used :-
The sum of the roots of the Equation ax² + bx + c = 0 , is given by = (-b/a)
and ,
→ Product of roots of the Equation is given by = c/a.
Solution :-
Put The Equation to Zero First..
→ 5z² + 13z – p = 0
Comparing with ax² + bx + c = 0, now, we get,
→ a = 5
→ b = 13
→ c = (-p)
Now, Let Roots of The Equation are ɑ and β...
Since, Roots are reciprocal of the other,
So,
→ ɑ = 1/ β
or,
→ β = 1/ɑ
Now, we know That,
→ Product of Roots are = c/a
→ ɑ * β = (-p)/5
→ ɑ * 1/ɑ = -p/5
→ 1 = -p/5
→ -p = 5
→ p = (-5) (Ans).
Hence, Value of p will be (-5).
