Question 52.


When a polynomial is divided by (x+2), the quotient and remainder are (2x-1) and 3 respectively. Find the polynomial.


  1.     2x2+6x+11
  2.     5x2+3x+8
  3.     6x2+3x+9
  4.     2x2+3x+1
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 2x2+3x+1
:
D

We know that, by divison algorithm, 
Dividend = Divisor x Quotient + Remainder.
P(x)=(x+2)×(2x1)+3         =x(2x1)+2(2x1)+3         =2x2x+4x2+3P(x)=2x2+3x+1
The required polynomial is 2x2+3x+1.


Question 53.


Find all the common zeroes of the polynomials x3+5x29x45 and x3+8x2+15x.


  1.     3
  2.     5
  3.     -3
  4.     -5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> -3
:
C and D

Let p(x)=x3+5x29x45
      q(x)=x3+8x2+15x
p(x)=x3+5x29x45
p(x)=x2(x+5)9(x+5)
p(x)=(x+5)(x29)
p(x)=(x+5)(x+3)(x3)
Zeroes are -5,-3 and 3.
q(x)=x3+8x2+15x
q(x)=x(x2+8x+15)
q(x)=x(x+5)(x+3)
Zeroes are 0, -5 and -3
Therefore, common zeroes are -5 and -3.


Question 54.


Find the quadratic polynomial whose sum of its zeroes (roots) is 85 and the product of the zeroes (roots)  is 75.


  1.     14x2+7x+5
  2.     5x2+8x+7
  3.     2x28x+7
  4.     5x28x+7
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 5x2+8x+7
:
B

Given that,
Sum of zeroes = 85


Product of zeroes = 75


Required quadratic polynomial is,
f(x)=[(x2(sum of roots)x+(product of roots)]
Substituting the given values we get,
f(x)=[x2(8)5x+75]
f(x)=[x2+85x+75] 
multiplying by 5 we get
f(x)=5x2+8x+7
 Required polynomial is 5x2+8x+7.


Question 55.


Priya lost her homework paper on polynomials and she doesn't remember the divisor which, on dividing the polynomial x33x2+x+2 gives quotient (x2) and remainder (2x+4). Find the divisor.

  2.     x28x+7
  3.     x2x+1
  4.     6x2x+11
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> x2x+1
:
C

We know that,
Dividend = Divisor x Quotient +Remainder
x33x2+x+2=Divisor×(x2)+(2x+4)
Divisor×(x2)=x33x2+x+2+2x4
Divisor=(x33x2+3x2)x2

Question 56.


If α,β and γ are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial ax3+bx2+cx+d,
then α+β+γ is equal to


  1.     ca
  2.     -da
  3.     cd
  4.     -ba
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> -ba
:
D

If α,β and γ are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial ax3+bx2+cx+d, then


sum of its zeroes

(coefficient of x2)(coefficient of x3)=ba


Question 57.


Find the zeroes of the polynomial x22.
 


  1.     2 and 5
  2.     4 and 3
  3.     2 and 2
  4.     5 and 2 
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 2 and 2
:
C

To find the zeroes, equate the given polynomial to zero.
x22=0
Using  the identity, a2b2=(a+b)(ab)
(x+2)(x2)=0 
x+2=0 and x2=0
x=2 and x=2
Hence, the zeroes are 2,2


Question 58.


Find the quadratic polynomial whose zeroes are 6+33 and 633 .


  1.     x216x+9
  2.     3x212x+11
  3.     6x24x+1
  4.     7x24x+11
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 3x212x+11
:
B

Let α & β be the roots.
Sum of zeroes,  α+β=6+33+633                                       =123=4
Product of zeroes, αβ=6+33×633=62(3)29αβ=3639=339=113
Required polynomial f(x)=[(x2(α+β)x+(αβ)]        =[(x24x+113]
Multiplying by 3
f(x)=3x212x+11
the required polynomial is 3x212x+11.

Question 60.


Which of the following is a polynomial in 1 variable?


  1.     4x + 2
  2.     1(x+1)
  3.     4x + 2 = 0
  4.     x + y
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 4x + 2
:
A

A polynomial is a mathematical expression of one or more algebraic terms each of which consists of a constant multiplied with one or more variables raised to a non-negative integral power . For example, (a+bx+cx2) where a, b and c are constants, and x is the variable.


Degree is the highest power of the variable.
4x+2 is a polynomial of degree 1.



1(x+1)=(x+1)1, the degree of this expression would not be non-negative. Thus, it is not a polynomial.



4x+2=0 is an equation and hence not a polynomial.



x+y is a polynomial in two variables, x and y.
