Find a quadratic polynomial, the sum and product of whose zeroes are - 3 and 2, respectively

Solution: 

A quadratic polynomial is in the form of ax² + bx + c = 0 where a ≠ 0. 

The sum of the zeroes is expressed as - b/a that is coefficient of x / coefficient of x²

The product of the zeroes is expressed as c/a that is constant term/ coefficient of x²

In the above question,

The sum of zeroes = - b/a 

= - 3/1

The product of the zeroes = c/a 

= 2/1

The quadratic polynomial is x² - 3x + 2 = 0
