Solution
`3x^2 ˗ x ˗ 4 = 0`
`⇒3x^2 ˗ 4x + 3x ˗ 4 = 0`
`⇒x (3x ˗ 4) + 1 (3x ˗ 4) = 0`
`⇒(3x ˗ 4) (x + 1) = 0`
`⇒ (3x ˗ 4) or (x + 1) = 0`
`⇒x=4/3 or x=-1`
Sum of zeroes `4/3+(-1)=1/3=(-("Coefficient of x"))/(("Coefficient of x"^2))`
Product of zeroes =`4/3xx(-1)=(-4)/3=("Constant term") /(("Coefficient of "x^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.
