Question

M and m are the zeroes of ax^2-5x+c. Find the values of a and c , if m+n=m.n=10.

Answer 1

Question is Incorrect, but I corrected it;

p(x)= ax^2 - 5x + c

Comparing it in the form ax^2 + bx + c, we get : a=1; b=(-5); c=1

m and n are the zeroes of p(x)

m+n =5 ; m.n = 1

We know that,

m+n = -(b)/a

=> 5 = -(-5)/1

=> 5 = 5

m.n = c/a

=> 1 = 1/1
