What is the value of n in this proportion? 8/12 = 10/n

1 answer:

5 0

8/1/2=10/n=2*(n-15)/3n*3n=0*3n. Now we do, 2*(n-15)=0, which gives us 2=0. N-15=0. So n=15. Therefore, the answer is n=15.

Construct a quadratic polynomial whose zeroes are negatives of the zeroes of the

sp2606 [1]

Given:

The given quadratic polynomial is :

$x^2-x-12$

To find:

The quadratic polynomial whose zeroes are negatives of the zeroes of the given polynomial.

Solution:

We have,

$x^2-x-12$

Equate the polynomial with 0 to find the zeroes.

$x^2-x-12=0$

Splitting the middle term, we get

$x^2-4x+3x-12=0$

$x(x-4)+3(x-4)=0$

$(x+3)(x-4)=0$

$x=-3,4$

The zeroes of the given polynomial are -3 and 4.

The zeroes of a quadratic polynomial are negatives of the zeroes of the given polynomial. So, the zeroes of the required polynomial are 3 and -4.

A quadratic polynomial is defined as:

$x^2-(\text{Sum of zeroes})x+\text{Product of zeroes}$

$x^2-(3+(-4))x+(3)(-4)$

$x^2-(-1)x+(-12)$

$x^2+x-12$

Therefore, the required polynomial is $x^2+x-12$ .
