Q8 of 113 Page 65

The sum and the product of the zeros of a quadratic polynomial are 3 and ‒10 respectively. The quadratic polynomial is

We have, sum of zeroes(α + β) = 3


Product of zeroes(αβ) = -10


We know that,


Required polynomial = x2 – (α + β) + αβ


= x2 – 3x – 10


Hence, option C is correct.
