We have,
For the zeroes of the polynomial
(x + 2) (x + 3) = 0
x + 2 = 0 or x + 3 = 0
x = -2 or x = -3
Thus, the zeroes of f(x ) =x2 + 5x + 6 are - α= –2 and β = –3
Now,
Sum of the zeroes =
=
Product of the zeroes =
=
Kind a cubic polynomial with the sum, sum of the product of its zeroes taken two at a time and the product of its zeroes as –9, –11, 30 respectively.
4x2 – 4x – 3
= 4x2 – 6x + 2x – 3
= 2x (2x – 3) + 1 (2x – 3)
= (2x – 3) (2x + 1)
So, 4x2 – 4x – 3 = 0 ⇒ (2x – 3) (2x + 1) = 0
⇒ 2x – 3 = 0 or 2x + 1 = 0
⇒ x = 3/2 or x = – 1/2
∴ Zeroes of are
Now,
Sum of zeroes =
=
and product of zeroes =
