उत्तर
Let a - d, a and a + d be the zeros of the polynomial f(x). Then,
Sum of the zeroes `=("coefficient of "x^2)/("coefficient of "x^3)`
`a-d+a+a+d=(-(-12))/1`
`a-d+a+a+d=12`
`3a=12`
`a=12/3=4`
Since 'a' is a zero of the polynomial f(x).
f(x) = x3 − 12x2 + 39x + k
f(a) = 0
f(a) = 43 − 12(4)2 + 39(4) + k
0 = 64 - 192 + 156 + k
0 = 220 - 192 + k
0 = 28 + k
-28 = k
Hence, the value of k is -28.

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 ______.
