1. The graphs y = p(x) are given in the following figure, for some polynomials p(x). Find the number of zeros of p(x), in each case.
Solution:

(i)

(ii)

The number of zeros is 1 as the graph intersects x-axis at only one point.

(iii)

The number of zeros is 3 as the graph intersects x-axis at 3 points.

(iv)

The number of zeros is 2 as the graph intersects x-axis at 2 points.

(v)

Exercise 2.2:


1. Find the zeros of the following quadratic polynomials and verify the relationship between the zeros and coefficients.

(i) x² ˗ 2x ˗ 8

(ii) 4s² ˗ 4s + 1

(iii) 6x² ˗ 3 ˗ 7x

(iv) 4u² + 8u

(v) t² ˗ 15

(vi) 3x² ˗ x ˗ 4


Solution:

(i)

x² ˗ 2x ˗ 8 = x² ˗ 4x + 2x ˗ 8                          [ ˗ 4 + 2 = ˗ 2 and ˗ 4 × 2 = ˗ 8 ]
                = x(x ˗ 4) + 2(x ˗ 4)
                = (x ˗ 4)(x + 2)

To find the zero, equate the polynomial to 0.

(x ˗ 4)(x + 2) = 0

⇒ x = 4 and x = ˗ 2.

Hence the zeros of x² ˗ 2x ˗ 8 is 4 and ˗ 2.


Verifying the relationship between zeros and coefficients.



















(ii)

4s² ˗ 4s + 1 = ( 2s ˗ 1 )²
           
To find the zero, equate the polynomial to 0.

( 2s ˗ 1 )² = 0

⟹ ( 2s ˗ 1 )( 2s ˗ 1 ) = 0



Verifying the relationship between zeros and coefficients.





















(iii)

6x² ˗ 3 ˗ 7x = 6x² ˗ 7x ˗ 3
                   = 6x² + 2x ˗ 9x ˗ 3                         [ 2 ˗ 9 = ˗7 and 2 × ( ˗ 9 ) = ˗ 18 ]
                   = 2x(3x + 1) ˗ 3(3x + 1)
                   = (3x + 1)(2x ˗ 3)
                 
       
To find the zero, equate the polynomial to 0.











Verifying the relationship between zeros and coefficients.



















(iv)

4u² + 8u = 4u(u + 2 )

To find the zero, equate the polynomial to 0.

4u(u + 2 ) = 0

4u = 0 and  u + 2 = 0

u = 0  and u = ˗2

Verifying the relationship between zeros and coefficients.




















(v)

t² ˗ 15 = ( t + √15 ) ( t ˗ √15 )

To find the zero, equate the polynomial to 0.

( t + √15 ) ( t ˗ √15 ) = 0

t + √15 = 0  and  t ˗ √15 = 0

t = ˗√15   and  t =  √15

Verifying the relationship between zeros and coefficients.




















(vi)

3x² ˗ x ˗ 4 = 3x² + 3x ˗ 4x ˗ 4
                 = 3x( x + 1 ) ˗4( x + 1 )
                 = ( x + 1 ) ( 3x ˗ 4 )

To find the zero, equate the polynomial to 0.

( x + 1 ) ( 3x ˗ 4 ) = 0

x + 1 = 0  and  3x ˗ 4 = 0

x = ˗1  and  3x = 4



Verifying the relationship between zeros and coefficients.



















2. Find a quadratic polynomial each with the given numbers as the sum and product of its zeroes respectively.
















Solution:

(i)

Let the polynomial be ax² + bx + c and its zeroes be ⍺ and β.
∴ a = 4 , b = ˗1 and c = ˗4.

Hence the quadratic polynomial is 4x² ˗ x ˗ 4.


(ii)

Let the polynomial be ax² + bx + c and its zeroes be ⍺ and β.
















∴ a = 3, b = ˗3√2  and c = 1.

Hence the quadratic polynomial is 3x² ˗ 3√2x + 1.


(iii)

Let the polynomial be ax² + bx + c and its zeroes be ⍺ and β.

















∴ a = 1 , b = 0  and c = √5.

Hence the quadratic polynomial is x²  + √5.


(iv)

Let the polynomial be ax² + bx + c and its zeroes be ⍺ and β.

















∴ a = 1, b = ˗1  and c = 1

Hence the quadratic polynomial is x² ˗ x + 1.


(v)

Let the polynomial be ax² + bx + c and its zeroes be ⍺ and β.













∴ a = 4, b = 1  and c = 1.

Hence the quadratic polynomial is 4x² + x + 1.


(vi)

Let the polynomial be ax² + bx + c and its zeroes be ⍺ and β.

















∴ a = 1, b = ˗4  and c = 1.

Hence the quadratic polynomial is x² ˗ 4x + 1.


Exercise 2.3:


1. Divide the polynomial p(x) by the polynomial g(x) and find the quotient and remainder in each of the following.

(i)

p(x) = x³ ˗ 3x² + 5x ˗ 3, g(x) = x² ˗ 2.

Solution:
















∴ Quotient = x ˗ 3  and Remainder = 7x ˗ 9.


(ii)

p(x) = x⁴ ˗ 3x² + 4x + 5, g(x) = x² + 1 ˗ x               

Solution:



















∴ Quotient = x² + x ˗ 3  and Remainder = 8


(iii)

p(x) = x⁴ ˗ 5x + 6, g(x) = 2 ˗ x²

Solution:

∴ Quotient = ˗x² ˗2  and Remainder = ˗5x + 10


2. Check whether the first polynomial is a factor of the second polynomial by dividing the second polynomial by the first polynomial.

(i) t² ˗ 3, 2t⁴ + 3t³ ˗ 2t² ˗ 9t ˗ 12

Solution:


















The remainder is 0 while dividing 2t⁴ + 3t³ ˗ 2t² ˗ 9t ˗ 12 by t² ˗ 3.

∴ t² ˗ 3 is a factor of 2t⁴ + 3t³ ˗ 2t² ˗ 9t ˗ 12.


(ii) x² + 3x + 1, 3x⁴ + 5x³ – 7x² + 2x + 2

Solution:

















The remainder is 0 while dividing 3x⁴ + 5x³ – 7x² + 2x + 2 by x² + 3x + 1.

Hence x² + 3x + 1 is a factor of 3x⁴ + 5x³ – 7x² + 2x + 2.


(iii) x³ – 3x + 1, x⁵ – 4x³ + x² + 3x + 1

Solution:













The remainder is 0 while dividing x⁵ – 4x³ + x² + 3x + 1 by x³ – 3x + 1.

Hence x³ – 3x + 1 is a factor of x⁵ – 4x³ + x² + 3x + 1.


3. Obtain all other zeroes of 3x⁴ + 6x³ – 2x² – 10x – 5, if two of its zeroes are √(5/3)
and –√(5/3).

Solution:

p(x) = 3x⁴ + 6x³ – 2x² – 10x – 5
Since the two zeroes are √(5/3) and –√(5/3).































To find the other zeros we equate (x + 1)² to 0.

(x + 1)² = 0

(x + 1)(x + 1) = 0

x = ˗1 and ˗1.

Hence the zeroes of the given polynomial are √(5/3), –√(5/3), ˗1 and ˗1.


4. On dividing x³ ˗ 3x² + x + 2 by a polynomial g(x), the quotient and remainder were x ˗ 2 and
˗2x + 4, respectively. Find g(x).

Solution:

Dividend = x³ ˗ 3x² + x + 2

Divisor = g(x) = ?

Quotient = x ˗ 2

Remainder = ˗2x + 4

We know that

Dividend = Quotient × Divisor + Remainder

x³ ˗ 3x² + x + 2 = (x ˗ 2) × g(x) + (˗2x + 4 )

(x ˗ 2) × g(x) = ( x³ ˗ 3x² + x + 2 ) ˗ (˗2x + 4 )

                      =   x³ ˗ 3x² + x + 2 + 2x ˗ 4

                      =   x³ ˗ 3x² + 3x ˗ 2


















∴ g(x) = x² ˗ x + 1


5. Give examples of polynomial p(x), g(x), q(x) and r(x), which satisfy the division algorithm and
(i) deg p(x) = deg q(x)
(ii) deg q(x) = deg r(x)
(iii) deg r(x) = 0

Solution:

(i)

Let us assume the division of 6x² + 2x + 2 by 2




Here, p(x) = 6x² + 2x + 2
g(x) = 2
q(x) = 3x² + x + 1
r(x) = 0
Degree of p(x) and q(x) is same i.e. 2.
Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x)
Or, 6x² + 2x + 2 = 2 × (3x² + x + 1) + 0
                           = 6x² + 2x + 2
Hence, division algorithm is satisfied.

(ii)

Let us assume the division of x³ + x by x²,









Here, p(x) = x³ + x
g(x) = x²
q(x) = x and r(x) = x
Clearly, the degree of q(x) and r(x) is the same i.e., 1.
Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x)
x³ + x = (x² ) × x + x
          = x³ + x
Thus, the division algorithm is satisfied.


(iii)

Let us assume the division of x³ + 1 by x².








Here, p(x) = x³ + 1
g(x) = x²
q(x) = x and r(x) = 1
Clearly, the degree of r(x) is 0.
Checking for division algorithm,
p(x) = g(x) × q(x) + r(x)
x³ + 1 = (x² ) × x + 1
          = x³ + 1
Thus, the division algorithm is satisfied.
