Answer:
The value of K is 15 and other zeroes are 3,5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Polynomial is x ^ 2 - 8x + k
Therefore, a = 1 , b = - 8 , c = k
Let one of the zeroes be alpha
Therefore, other zero is alpha + 2 alpha + alpha + 2 = - b/a
Sum of zeroes
=> 2alpha + 2 = - - 8/1
=> 2alpha + 2 = 8
=> 2α = 6
=> alpha = 3
Therefore, one zero is 3
And other is 3 + 2 = 5
Also, Product of zeroes a x (alpha + 2) = c/a
=> 3 x 5 = k/1
=> k = 15
