Let ЁЭЫ╝ and ЁЭЫ╜ be the zeroes of the required polynomial f(x).
Then (ЁЭЫ╝ + ЁЭЫ╜) = 8 and ЁЭЫ╝ЁЭЫ╜ = 12
∴ `f(x)=x^2-(∝+β)x+∝β `
`⇒ f(x)=x^2-8x+12`
Hence, required polynomial `f(x)=x^2-8x+12`
`∴ f(x)=0 ⇒ x^2-8x+12=0`
`⇒ x^2-(6x+2x)+12=0`
`⇒ x^2-6x-2x+12=0`
`⇒x(x-6)-2(x-6)=0`
`⇒ (x-2) (x-6)=0`
`⇒ (x-2)=0 or (x-6)=0`
`⇒x=2 or x=6`
So, the zeroes of f(x) are 2 and 6.

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 ______.
