  1. SOLUTION

    GIVEN

    If each zero of the polynomial x² + mx + n is three times to the zeroes of 3x² – 5x + 2

    TO DETERMINE

    The value of m and n

    EVALUATION

    Here the given polynomial is 3x² – 5x + 2

    Now we find the roots of the polynomial

    For Zero of the polynomial 3x² – 5x + 2 we have

    [tex] \displaystyle \sf{3 {x}^{2} – 5x + 2 = 0 }[/tex]

    [tex] \displaystyle \sf{ \implies \: 3 {x}^{2} – 3x – 2x + 2 = 0 }[/tex]

    [tex] \displaystyle \sf{ \implies \: 3x(x – 1) – 2(x – 1) = 0 \: }[/tex]

    [tex] \displaystyle \sf{ \implies \: (x – 1) (3x – 2) = 0 \: }[/tex]

    [tex] \displaystyle \sf{ (x – 1) = 0 \: \: gives \: \: x = 1}[/tex]

    [tex] \displaystyle \sf{ (3x – 2) = 0 \: \: gives \: \: x = \frac{2}{3} }[/tex]

    Therefore roots of the quadratic polynomial 3x² – 5x + 2 are [tex] \displaystyle \sf{ 1 \: \: and \: \: \frac{2}{3} }[/tex]

    Now it is given that each zero of the polynomial x² + mx + n is three times to the zeroes of 3x² – 5x + 2

    Therefore roots of the quadratic polynomial x² + mx + n are [tex] \displaystyle \sf{ 3 \: \: and \: \: 2}[/tex]

    Now the quadratic polynomial whose roots are 3 , 2 are

    [tex] \sf{ {x}^{2} -(Sum \: of \: the \: zeroes )x + Product \: of \: the \: zeroes }[/tex]

    [tex] = \sf{ {x}^{2} – (3 + 2)x + (3 \times 2) }[/tex]

    [tex] = \sf{ {x}^{2} – 5x + 6 }[/tex]

    Now Comparing with x² + mx + n we get

    m = 5 & n = 6
