    Step 1: Understanding Zeros and Quadratic Form
    – A quadratic polynomial has the general form: x² + bx + c
    – Its zeros are the roots that make the polynomial equal to zero
    – Let the zeros be p and q

    Step 2: Given Conditions
    – Sum of zeros (p + q) = 3
    – Product of zeros (p * q) = -10

    In the standard form x² + bx + c:
    – b = -(sum of zeros)
    – c = product of zeros

    Step 4: Calculating Coefficients
    – b = -(p + q) = -3
    – c = p * q = -10

    Step 5: Constructing the Quadratic Polynomial
    The polynomial becomes:
    x² – 3x – 10

    Verification:
    – Coefficient of x²: 1
    – Coefficient of x: -3 (negative of zero sum)
    – Constant term: -10 (product of zeros)

    Mathematical Reasoning:
    The coefficients directly reflect the given conditions about the zeros:
    – Sum of zeros: p + q = 3
    – Product of zeros: p * q = -10

    Conclusion:
    The quadratic polynomial is x² – 3x – 10.

    Step 1: Polynomial Structure
    Given polynomial: f(x) = x³ + 3x² + 3x + 1

    Step 2: Divisibility Test Method
    – To check if a polynomial is divisible by (x + a), we can use the remainder theorem
    – The polynomial is divisible by (x + a) if f(-a) = 0

    Step 3: Checking Possible Divisors
    Let’s evaluate f(-1):
    f(-1) = (-1)³ + 3(-1)² + 3(-1) + 1
    = -1 + 3 – 3 + 1
    = 0

    Mathematical Insight:
    – When f(-1) = 0, it means (x + 1) is a factor of the polynomial
    – This indicates the polynomial is completely divisible by (x + 1)

    Step 4: Verification
    Dividing x³ + 3x² + 3x + 1 by (x + 1):
    – The result is a quadratic: x² + 2x + 1

    Conclusion:
    The polynomial is divisible by x + 1.

  3. Step 1: Understanding the Polynomial Polynomial: x² - 5x + 6 - Zeros are α and β - Standard form: x² - (α + β)x + (α * β) = 0 Step 2: Vieta's Formulas We already know from the given polynomial: - Sum of zeros: α + β = 5 - Product of zeros: α * β = 6 Step 3: Goal Calculation We are trying to calculatRead more

    Step 1: Understanding the Polynomial
    Polynomial: x² – 5x + 6
    – Zeros are α and β
    – Standard form: x² – (α + β)x + (α * β) = 0

    Step 2: Vieta’s Formulas
    We already know from the given polynomial:
    – Sum of zeros: α + β = 5
    – Product of zeros: α * β = 6

    Step 3: Goal Calculation
    We are trying to calculate: α² + β²

    Step 4: Algebraic Manipulation
    (α + β)² = α² + 2αβ + β²
    α² + β² = (α + β)² – 2αβ

    Step 5: Substitution
    – (α + β)² = 5²
    = 25
    – αβ = 6
    – α² + β² = (α + β)² – 2(αβ)
    = 25 – 12
    = 11

    Mathematical Insight
    This approach applies Vieta’s formulas to connect the coefficients of a quadratic with the characteristics of its zeros without actually solving for the zeros themselves.

    Conclusion:
    The value of α² + β² is 11.

  4. Step 1: Understanding Infinitely Many Solutions • In a system of linear equations, infinitely many solutions occur when the equations represent the same line. • This means the equations are scalar multiples of each other. Step 2: Mathematical Representation Given equations: 1. 2x + 3y = 5 (EquationRead more

    Step 1: Understanding Infinitely Many Solutions
    • In a system of linear equations, infinitely many solutions occur when the equations represent the same line.
    • This means the equations are scalar multiples of each other.

    Step 2: Mathematical Representation
    Given equations:
    1. 2x + 3y = 5 (Equation ₁)
    2. 4x + ky = 10 (Equation ₂)

    Step 3: Condition for Infinitely Many Solutions
    For the lines to be the same, the coefficients must maintain a consistent ratio.

    Coefficient Analysis:
    • 1st equation: 2x + 3y = 5
    – Coefficient of x: 2
    – Coefficient of y: 3

    • 2nd equation: 4x + ky = 10
    – Coefficient of x: 4
    – Coefficient of y: k

    Step 4: Ratio Consistency
    Coefficient of x ratio: 4 ÷ 2 = 2
    Coefficient of y ratio: k ÷ 3 = 2

    Therefore:
    k = 3 * 2 = 6

    Step 5: Verification
    • When k = 6, the second equation becomes: 4x + 6y = 10
    • Dividing by 2: 2x + 3y = 5 (exactly the same as the first equation)

    Conclusion:
    The value of k must be 6 to create infinitely many solutions.

  5. Step 1: Examining the System of Equations Equation ₁: 3x - y = 5 Equation ₂: 6x - 2y = k Step 2: Infinitely Many Solutions Condition Infinitely many solutions are achieved when the equations define the same line. That is, the equations should be scalar multiples of one another. Step 3: Coefficient CRead more

    Step 1: Examining the System of Equations
    Equation ₁: 3x – y = 5
    Equation ₂: 6x – 2y = k

    Step 2: Infinitely Many Solutions Condition
    Infinitely many solutions are achieved when the equations define the same line.
    That is, the equations should be scalar multiples of one another.

    Step 3: Coefficient Comparison
    – Equation ₁ coefficients:
    – x coefficient: 3
    – y coefficient: -1

    – Equation ₂ coefficients:
    – x coefficient: 6
    – y coefficient: -2

    Step 4: Checking Proportionality
    Notice the proportionality of coefficients:
    – x coefficient ratio: 6 ÷ 3 = 2
    – y coefficient ratio: -2 ÷ (-1) = 2

    Step 5: Constant Term Condition
    For an infinite number of solutions, constant terms must also be under the same scaling.

    Equations should be equal:
    3x – y = 5
    6x – 2y = k

    Replacing the coefficient scaling:
    – If the equations are for the same line, k should be 2 * 5 = 10

    Step 6: Checking
    If k = 10, the second equation is:
    6x – 2y = 10
    Divide by 2:
    3x – y = 5 (Which is exactly the same as the first equation)

    Conclusion:
    The value of k for infinitely many solutions is 10.
