If (x+a) is a factor of the polynomial `2x^2 + 2ax + 5x + 10`, find the value of a.
उत्तर
Given: (x + a) is a factor of `2x^2 + 2ax + 5x + 10`
So, we have
x + a = 0
⇒ x = –a
Now, it will satisfy the above polynomial.
Therefore, we will get
`2 (–a)^2 + 2a(–a) + 5(–a) + 10 = 0`
`⇒ 2a^2 –2a^2 – 5a + 10 = 0`
`⇒ – 5a = – 10`
`⇒ a = 2`

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 ______.
An asana is a body posture, originally and still a general term for a sitting meditation pose, and later extended in hatha yoga and modern yoga as exercise, to any type of pose or position, adding reclining, standing, inverted, twisting, and balancing poses. In the figure, one can observe that poses can be related to representation of quadratic polynomial.
