4 0

since its the zeros it should be x -/+ something

(x-1)(x+1)(x+4)

multiply for standard form

((x^2)-1)(x+4)

x^3-x

+ x^2 -4

x^2 + x^2 -x -4

If alpha and beta are the zeroes of the polynomial 6x2+x-2 find the value og alpha/beta + beta/alpha

castortr0y [4]

$6x^2+x-2=6x^2+4x-3x-2=2x(3x+2)-1(3x+2)\\\\=(3x+2)(2x-1)\\\\3x+2=0\to x=-\frac{2}{3}\\\\2x-1=0\to x=\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha=-\frac{2}{3};\ \beta=\frac{1}{2}\\\\\frac{\alpha}{\beta}+\frac{\beta}{\alpha}=\frac{-\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{2}}+\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{-\frac{2}{3}}=-\frac{2}{3}\cdot\frac{2}{1}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{3}{2}=-\frac{4}{3}-\frac{3}{4}\\\\=-\frac{16}{12}-\frac{9}{12}=-\frac{25}{12}=-2\frac{1}{12}$

$use\ Vieta's\ formula:\\\\\frac{\alpha}{\beta}+\frac{\beta}{\alpha}=\frac{\alpha^2+\beta^2}{\alpha\beta}=\frac{\alpha^2+2\alpha\beta+\beta^2-2\alpha\beta}{\alpha\beta}=\frac{(\alpha+\beta)^2-2\alpha\beta}{\alpha\beta}=\frac{(\alpha+\beta)^2}{\alpha\beta}-2\\\\\alpha+\beta=\frac{-b}{a};\ \alpha\beta=\frac{c}{a}\\\\\frac{(\alpha+\beta)^2}{\alpha\beta}-2=\frac{\left(\frac{-b}{a}\right)^2}{\frac{c}{a}}-2=\frac{b^2}{a^2}\cdot\frac{a}{c}-2=\frac{b^2}{ac}-2$

$6x^2+x-2\\\\a=6;\ b=1;\ c=-2\\\\\frac{\alpha}{\beta}+\frac{\beta}{\alpha}=\frac{1^2}{6\cdot(-2)}-2=\frac{1}{-12}-2=-2\frac{1}{12}$
