If α, β, γ are are the zeros of the polynomial f(x) = x3 − px2 + qx − r, the\[\frac{1}{\alpha\beta} + \frac{1}{\beta\gamma} + \frac{1}{\gamma\alpha} =\]
उत्तर
We have to find the value of `1/(alphabeta)+1/(betay)+1/(yalpha)`
Given `alpha,beta,y` be the zeros of the polynomial f(x) = x3 − px2 + qx − r,
`alpha + ß + y = (-text{coefficient of }x^2)/(text{coefficient of } x^3)`
`= (-p)/1`
`= p`
`alphabetay= (-\text{Constant term})/(\text{Coefficient of}x^3)`
`(-(r))/1`
`= r`
Now we calculate the expression
`1/(alphabeta)+1/(betay)+1/(yalpha)= y/(alphabetay)+alpha/(alphabetay)+beta/(alphabetay)`
`1/(alphabeta)+1/(betay)+1/(yalpha)= (alpha+y+beta)/(alphabetay)`
`1/(alphabeta)+1/(betay)+1/(yalpha)= p/r`
Hence, the correct choice is `(b).`

The figure given alongside shows the path of a diver, when she takes a jump from the diving board. Clearly it is a parabola.
Annie was standing on a diving board, 48 feet above the water level. She took a dive into the pool. Her height (in feet) above the water level at any time ‘t’ in seconds is given by the polynomial h(t) such that h(t) = -16t2 + 8t + k.
The zeroes of the polynomial r(t) = -12t2 + (k - 3)t + 48 are negative of each other. Then k is ______.
