Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
The equation is
x² + a x + 2 b = 0
One of the factor of equation is x + 2
And
a + b = 4
To find :
The value of a and b
Solution :
As The quadratic equation is x² + a x + 2 b = 0
And x + 2 is its factor ,
So, x = -2 satisfy the equation
Put the value of x in eq x² + a x + 2 b = 0
i.e ( - 2 )² + a ( -2 ) + 2 b = 0
Or, 4 - 2 a + 2 b= 0
Or, 4 = 2 a - 2 b
i.e a - b = 2 .......1
Since a + b = 4 ......2
Solving eq 1 and 2
( a - b ) + (a + b ) = 2 + 4
Or, 2 a = 6
∴ a = 6/2
i.e a = 3
Put the value of a into eq 1
∵ a - b = 2
So, 3 - b = 2
Or, b = 3 - 2
i.e b = 1
So, Value of a = 3, and b = 1
Hence, The value of a is 3 and value of b is 1 Answer
