Question

the product of the zeros of the quadratic polynomial 2x square _3x _5c is 1by2 which of the following is the value of c​

Answer 1

c = -
`(1)/(5)`

Explanation:

The product of the zeros =
`(c)/(a)` =
`(1)/(2)`

Given

2x² - 3x - 5c

with a = 2 and c = - 5c , then

`(-5c)/(2)` =
`(1)/(2)` ( cross- multiply )

- 10c = 2 ( divide both sides by - 10 )

c =
`(2)/(-10)` = -
`(1)/(5)`
