$\bold{\huge{\underline{ Solution }}}$

<h3>Given :- </h3>

• $\sf{ Polynomial :- ax^{2} + bx + c }$

• The zeroes of the given polynomial are α and β .

<h3>Let's Begin :- </h3>

Here, we have polynomial

$\sf{ = ax^{2} + bx + c }$

We know that, 

Sum of the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial

$\sf{ {\alpha} + {\beta} = {\dfrac{-b}{a}}}$

And 

Product of zeroes

$\sf{ {\alpha}{\beta} = {\dfrac{c}{a}}}$

Now, we have to find the polynomials having zeroes :-

$\sf{ {\dfrac{{\alpha} + 1 }{{\beta}}} ,{\dfrac{{\beta} + 1 }{{\alpha}}}}$

Therefore ,

Sum of the zeroes

$\sf{ ( {\alpha} + {\dfrac{1 }{{\beta}}} )+( {\beta}+{\dfrac{1 }{{\alpha}}})}$

$\sf{ ( {\alpha} + {\beta}) + ( {\dfrac{1}{{\beta}}} +{\dfrac{1 }{{\alpha}}})}$

$\sf{( {\dfrac{ -b}{a}} ) + {\dfrac{{\alpha}+{\beta}}{{\alpha}{\beta}}}}$

$\sf{( {\dfrac{ -b}{a}} ) + {\dfrac{-b/a}{c/a}}}$

$\sf{ {\dfrac{ -b}{a}} + {\dfrac{-b}{c}}}$

$\bold{{\dfrac{ -bc - ab}{ac}}}$

Thus, The sum of the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial are -bc - ab/ac

Product of zeroes

$\sf{ ( {\alpha} + {\dfrac{1 }{{\beta}}} ){\times}( {\beta}+{\dfrac{1 }{{\alpha}}})}$

$\sf{ {\alpha}{\beta} + 1 + 1 + {\dfrac{1}{{\alpha}{\beta}}}}$

$\sf{ {\alpha}{\beta} + 2 + {\dfrac{1}{{\alpha}{\beta}}}}$

$\bold{ {\dfrac{c}{a}} + 2 + {\dfrac{ a}{c}}}$

Hence, The product of the zeroes are c/a + a/c + 2 .

We know that, 

For any quadratic equation

$\sf{ x^{2} + ( sum\: of \:zeroes )x + product\:of\: zeroes }$

$\bold{ x^{2} + ( {\dfrac{ -bc - ab}{ac}} )x + {\dfrac{c}{a}} + 2 + {\dfrac{ a}{c}}}$

Hence, The polynomial is x² + (-bc-ab/c)x + c/a + a/c + 2 .

<h3>Some basic information :-</h3>

• Polynomial is algebraic expression which contains coffiecients are variables.

• There are different types of polynomial like linear polynomial , quadratic polynomial , cubic polynomial etc.

• Quadratic polynomials are those polynomials which having highest power of degree as 2 .

• The general form of quadratic equation is ax² + bx + c.

• The quadratic equation can be solved by factorization method, quadratic formula or completing square method.

The first term in an arithmetic sequence is 5. The fourth term in the sequence is −4. The tenth term

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence: aₙ = a₁ + d(n - 1)

{d = common difference}

a₁ = 5

a₄ = 5 + d(4 - 1)

-4 = 5 + 3d

-4 - 5 = 3d

3d = -9

d = -3

Therefore;

aₙ = 5 + (-3)(n - 1)

aₙ = -3n + 8

Check: a₁₀ = 5 + (-3)(10 - 1) = 5 - 27 = - 22
