If one zero of the polynomial 5z2 + 13z – p is reciprocal of the other, then find p. -Maths 10th

1 Answer

Answer :

The value of p is -5 Step-by-step explanation: Given that if one zero of polynomial  is reciprocal of the other then we have to find the value of p. a=5, b=13 and c=-p since the zeroes are reciprocal to each other. therefore their product must be 1 ⇒  ⇒  Hence, the value of p is -5
