11. (i) Polynomial x2 - 15x - 34 we can write it like that


f(x) = x2 - 15x - 34
for finding factor of the polynomial
f(x) = 0
x2 - 15x - 34 = 0
Splitting middle terms
x2 - 17x + 2x - 34 = 0
x(x -17) + 2(x - 17) = 0
(x + 2) (x - 17) = 0
x + 2 = 0 ; x - 17 = 0
x=-2 ; x = 17
(ii) f(x) = 2x2 - 3x - 14
f(x) = 0
2x2 - 3x - 14 = 0
2x2 - 7x + 4x - 14 = 0
x(2x - 7) + 2(2x - 7) = 0
(x + 2) (2x - 7) = 0
x + 2 = 0 ; 2x - 7 = 0
x=-2 ; 2x = 7
x = 7/2
12. Given:- x2-(k+6)x+2(2k+1)=0.

The standard quadratic equation is.

ax2 + bx + c = 0.

Now, comparing the given equation with the standard

form, we get

a=1

b = -(k + 6)
c = 2(2k + 1)
Now, the sum of zeros of a polynomial = -b/a
= -(-(k + 6))
=k+6
And, product of zeros of a polynomial = c/a
= 2(2k + 1)
= 4k + 2
Now, according to question,
Sum of zeros = 1/2 of product of zeros
k + 6 = 1/2 (4k + 2)
k + 6 = 2k + 1
2k - k = 6 - 1
k=5

13. Consider that √3 is a rational number. Then there


are positive integers a and b such that √3 = a/b,
where a and b are co-prime, meaning their
common factor is only 1.

√3 = a/b

3 = a2/b2

3b2 = a2

3 divides a2

so 3 also divides a …..(1)


a = 3c for some integer c

a2 = 9c2

3b2 = 9c2 [As a2 = 3b2]

b2 = 3c2

3 divides b2

so 3 also divides b …. (2)

From (1) and (2), it is clear that a and b share at least 3


as common factor .

However, this is contradicted by the fact that a and b are


co-prime, which shows that our assumption is wrong.

Hence, √3 is an irrational number

14. 6x2 - 3 - 7x write this equation in standard form


ax2 + bx + c = 0

6x2 - 7x - 3 = 0

6x2 - 9x + 2x - 3 = 0

3x(2x - 3) + 1(2x - 3) = 0

(2x - 3)(3x + 1) = 0

x = 3/2, x = - 1/3 are the zeroes of the polynomial.

Thus, α = 3/2 and β = -1/3

Now, let's find the relationship between the zeroes and


the coefficients:

For 6x2 - 3 - 7x,

a = 6, b = - 7 and c = - 3

Sum of zeroes = - coefficient of x / coefficient of x2

α+β=-b/a

Here,

α + β = 3/2 + (-1/3) = 7/6


- b / a = - (-7) / 6 = 7/6

Hence, α + β = - b/a, verified

Now, Product of zeroes = constant term / coefficient of


x2

α×β=c/a

Here,

α × β = 3/2 × (- 1/3) = -1/2

c / a = (- 3) / 6 = -1/2

Hence, α × β = c/a, verified.

Thus, x = 3/2, - 1/3 are the zeroes of the polynomial.

15. Let the number of votes for A be x and the number of


votes for B be y.
⇒ The number of persons who did not vote =
(18000 - x - y)
Given A obtained votes equal to twice the number of
persons on the electoral roll who did not vote
x = 2(18000 - x - y)
x = 36000 - 2x - 2y
⇒ 3x + 2y = 36000 → (1)
It is also given that A got votes twice his majority over B,
that is (x - y)
According to question
⇒ (18000 - x - y) = (2) (x - y)
⇒ (18000 - x - y) = 2x - 2y
⇒ 2x - 2y + x + y = 18000
⇒ 3x - y = 18000 → (2)
Subtract (2) from (1), we get
3x + 2y = 36000
3x - y = 18000
______________
3y = 18000
∴ y = 6000
Put y = 6000 in 3x - y = 18000
3x = 18000 + 6000 = 24000
∴ x = 8000
∴Hence number of votes for B = 6000

16. x2 + kx + 64 = 0
Here a = 1, b = k and c = 64
To have equal roots
b2 – 4ac = 0
Therefore, (k)2 – 4 (1) 64 = 0
k2 – 256 = 0
k2 = 256
k = 16
k = 16 is the positive value of k.
x2 - 8x + k = 0
Here a = 1, b = -8 and c = k
To have equal roots
b2 – 4ac = 0
(-8)2 - 4(1)(k) = 0
64 - 4k = 0
4k = 64
k = 16

18. Let us assume that √5 is a rational number with p


and q as co-prime integers and q ≠ 0

⇒ √5 = p / q

On squaring both sides we get,

⇒ 5q2 = p2

⇒ p2 is a prime number that divides q. Therefore, p is a


prime number that divides q

Let p = 5x where x is a whole number

By substituting the value of p in 5q2 = p2, we get

⇒ 5q2 = (5x)2

⇒ 5q2 = 25 x2

⇒ q2 = 5 x2

⇒ q2 is a prime number that divides x. Therefore, q is a


prime number that divides x

Since p and q both are prime numbers with 5 as a


common multiple which means that p and q are not co-
prime numbers as their HCF is 5

This leads to a contradiction that root 5 is a


rational number in the form of p / q with p and q
both co-prime numbers and q ≠ 0

Now, to prove that (2 - √5) is an irrational


number, we will again use the contradiction
method

Let us assume that (2 - √5) is a rational number


with p and q as co-prime integers and q ≠ 0

⇒ (2 - √5) = p / q

⇒ √5 = 2 - p/ q

⇒ √5 = (2q - p) / q

⇒ (2q - p) / q is a rational number

However,√5 is an irrational number

This leads to a contradiction that (2 - √5) is a


rational number

Thus, (2 - √5) is an irrational number
