Sum

Solution

By using the relationship between the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial.
We have  

Sum of zeroes = `(-("Coefficient of x"))/("Coefficient of "x^2)` 

Product of zeroes =`("Constant term")/("Coefficient of "x^2)` 

a = 2, b = −7, and c = k

∴ ∝+ β = `(-b)/c`

= `(-(-7))/2`

= `7/2`

∝β = `c/a`

= `k/2` 

Now, ๐›ผ + ๐›ฝ + ๐›ผ๐›ฝ = `7/2 + k/2`

= `(7 + k)/2`
