  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Which of the following numbers represents the sum of zeroes of the polynomial x2 – 9?
    Solution

    Polynomial p(x)=x2-9=0

    x2-32=0

    According the formula

    a2-b2=(a+b)(a-b)

    (x+3)(-3)=0

    So, 

    (x+3)=0 or (x-3)=0

    x=-3 or x=3

    Zeroes are  (3,-3)

    Sum of zeroes are: 3-3=0

    Hence, the correct option is (C).

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Which of the following numbers represents the sum of zeroes of the polynomial x2 – () x +?
    Solution

    x2-2+3x+6

    Sum of zeroes = -ba=- coefficient of x coefficient of x2

    -2+31

    2+3

    Therefore, option D is correct.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Which of the following polynomials has the sum of its zeroes as '1' and the product of its zeroes as '-2'?
    Solution

    Sum of zeroes = -ba = --11 = 11=1

    product of zeroes = ca=-21 = -2

    So, the equation will be = ax2+bx+c

    1x2+-1x+-2

    = x2-x-2

    Therefore, option C is correct.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    What is the minimum degree of the polynomial for the plotted graph?

    Solution

    The curve is cutting the x-axis three times having 3 zeroes resulting in the degree of equation 4.

    Therefore, option B is correct.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Which of the following expressions represents the remainder when x4 + x3 + 2x2 + 3x is divided by x2 + x?
    Solution

    We have x4+x3+2x2+3x

    x4+2x2+x3+2x+x (Break 3x as 2x+x )

    x2x2+2+xx2+2+x=x2+xx2+2+x

    On dividing by x2+x, we get

    (x2+2)+xx2+x (It is of form Q+RD)

    So remainder is x.

    Hence, the remainder is x.

    Therefore, option B is correct.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The graph of y = p(x), for some polynomial p(x), is given below:


    What is the number of zeros of p(x)?
    Solution

    Since the curve doesn't touch the x-axis at any point.

    The number of zeroes will be 0.

    Therefore, option A is correct.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    The graph of y = p(x), for some polynomial p(x), is given below:



    What is the number of zeros of p(x)?
    Solution

    Since the curve is touching at x-axis at a time.

    So, the zeroes will be 1.

    Therefore, option C is correct.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    The graph of y = p(x) for some polynomial p(x) is given below:



    How many zeroes of p(x) are there?
    Solution

    As the curve cuts the x-axis 10 times

    it has 10 zeroes.

    Therefore, option B is correct.

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    On dividing x4 + 2x2 - 3x + 7 by a polynomial g(x), the quotient and the remainder were x2 + 5 and -3x + 22, respectively. The polynomial g(x) was
    Solution

    as we know that Dividend = divisor × quotient + remainder

    then, x4+2x2-3x+17 = g(x) ×x2+5 + -3x+22

     x4+2x2-3x+7 - (-3x+22) = g(x) ×x2+5

    x4+2x2-3x+7+3x-22= g(x) ×x2+5

    x4+2x2-15x2+5=g(x)

    x2-3 = g(x)

    Therefore, option B is correct.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    If , are roots of ax2 + bx + b = 0, then

    (a and b are of the same sign)
    Solution

    ax2+bx+b=0

    α+β=-ba

    αβ=ba

    αβ+βα+ba=α+βαβ+ba

    -baba+ba

    -ba+ba

    = 0

    Therefore, option A is correct.

  • Question 11
    1 / -0
    Three curves are plotted on the given graph. 



    Which of the given curves has/have the greatest number of real and distinct zeroes?
    Solution

    There are three curves given u, v, and w.

    As we can see in the graph the curve u cuts the line at 3 points.

    Whereas, v and w curves clearly cuts the line at 2-2 points respectively. 

    So, from the above information, we clearly get that u have the greatest number of real and distinct zeroes.

    Therefore, option A is correct.

  • Question 12
    1 / -0
    Which of the following polynomials has the sum of zeroes as  and the product of zeroes as ?
    Solution

    Sum of zeroes = -ba=-112=- coefficient of x coefficient of x2

    Product of zeroes = ca = 52 = constant term  coefficient of x2

    The general equation will be = ax2+bx+c = 0

    The equation will be = 2x2-11x+5=0

    Therefore, option A is correct.

  • Question 13
    1 / -0
    If two zeroes of the polynomial x3 + 7x2 – 2x – 14 are and –, what will be the third zero of the polynomial?
    Solution

    Let the three roots of x3+7x2-2x-14 be α,β,γ so,

    α=2,β=-2 and γ=?

    We know that sum of roots (α+β+γ) for a cubic polynomial is ax3+bx2+cx+d is -ba

    So here α+β+γ=-ba=(-7)1=-7

    α+β+γ=-7...(i)

    Also α=2, β=2, so substituting in equation (i)

    (2)+(-2)+γ=-7

    γ=-7

    Hence, the third zero of the given polynomial is -7.

    Therefore, option B is correct.

  • Question 14
    1 / -0

    If α, β, γ are the roots of x3 + 2x2 - 3x - 1 = 0, then the value of then 1α2+1β2+1γ2 is.

    Solution

    x3+2x2-3x-1=0

    α+β+γ=-2

    αβ+βγ+γα = -3

    and αβγ=1

    1α2+1β2+1γ2 = β2γ2+α2γ2+α2β2α2β2γ2

     αβ+βγ+γα2-2αβγα+β+γαβγ2

     -32-2×1-21 = 9+4 = 13

    Therefore, option C is correct.

  • Question 15
    1 / -0
    What is the minimum degree of the polynomial that is represented in the given graph?

    Solution

    The curve is cutting the x-axis four times having 4 zeroes resulting in the degree of the equation 5.

    Therefore, option C is correct.
