Question

If the product of the zeroes of the polynomial ax2 -6x -6 is 4 find a

Answer 1

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the polynomial ax^2-6x-6

Let zeroes be m and n.

It is given that m×n=4

We know that for a quadratic polynomial,

mn=constant term÷coefficient of x^2

Therefore, mn=-6÷a

So, 4=-6÷a, which gives us a=-6/4

Therefore, a =-3/2
