Question 38
PolynomialsIf the sum of the roots of 2x2 + 5mx + n = 0 is 5, find the value of m.
- A.−2.5
- B.−2.0
- C.2.0
- D.2.5
Show the answer and explanation
Answer: B (−2.0)
Explanation
Sum of roots = −5m/2 = 5, so m = −2.
If the sum of the roots of 2x2 + 5mx + n = 0 is 5, find the value of m.
Answer: B (−2.0)
Sum of roots = −5m/2 = 5, so m = −2.
