Question

The zeroes of the quadratic polynomial x² + x – 6 are ______.

Answer 1

The zeroes of the quadratic polynomial x² + x – 6 are –3, 2.

Explanation:

Solve x² + x – 6 = 0. It factors as (x – 2)(x + 3) = 0, so x = 2 or x = –3. (Using the relation sum of zeros = –b/a and product = c/a also gives numbers 2 and –3.)
