Question

Find the product of the roots of the equation xl-5x - 36 = 0

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I assume that you mean

$x^2-5x-36$

The product is -36.

$x_1 \text{ and } x_2 \text{ are the two roots, we can write}\\\\(x-x_1)(x-x_2)=x^2-(x_1+x_2)x+x_1\cdot x_2$

So in this example, it means that the sum is 5 and the product is -36.

Thank you
