Question

What is the sum of the zeros of 2x^2-3x-5

Answer 1

Answer:

-1x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x²-3x-5

=(2x-3x) -5

=-1x -5

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

• Concept : The sum of zeroes of the quadratic polynomial $ax^2+bx+c$ is

                                                   $=-\dfrac{b}{a}$

Here for the quadratic polynomial $2x^2-3x-5$, we have $a=2,b=-3,c=-5$

Therefore sum of zeroes $=-\dfrac{-3}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}$
