CORRECT QUESTION
Jaya's mother gave her some money to buy papaya from the market at the rate of p(x) = x² - 23x + 120. Let α, β are the zeroes of p(x). Find the value of α and β
EVALUATION
Here the given polynomial is
p(x) = x² - 23x + 120
We now find the zeros of the polynomial
For zero of the polynomial
p(x) = 0
⇒ x² - 23x + 120 = 0
⇒ x² - 15x - 8x + 120 = 0
⇒ ( x - 15 ) ( x - 8 ) = 0
⇒ x = 15 , 8
Since it is given that α and β are the zeroes of p(x)
CASE : 1
When α < β
We have α = 8 , β = 15
CASE : 2
When α > β
We have α = 15 , β = 8
FINAL ANSWER
Hence the required value of α and β is given by as below
When α > β we have α = 15 , β = 8
When α < β we have α = 8 , β = 15
