Find the product and sum of the roots of the equation:<br> 2x^2-9x-10=0

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

<h3> sum of the roots: $x_1+x_2=4\frac12$ </h3><h3> product of the roots: $x_1x_2=-5$ </h3><h3> Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

$2x^2-9x-10=0\quad\implies\quad a=2\,,\ b=-9\,,\ c=-10$

$b^2-4ac=(-9)^2-4(2)(-10)=81+80=161>0$

From Vieta's formulas applied to quadratic polynomial we have:

if $b^2-4ac\geqslant0$ then

sum of roots: $x_1+x_2=-\dfrac ba=-\dfrac{-9}2=4\frac12$

product of the roots: $x_1x_2=\dfrac ca=\dfrac{-10}2=-5$
