    Directions: Q. 11 to 15
    Nirahua's father gave him some money to buy papaya from the market at the rate of\[p\left( x \right)={{x}^{2}}-23x+120\]. Let \[\alpha ,\,\beta \] are the zeroes of \[p\left( x \right)\].
    Based on the above information, answer the following questions.
    Find the value of \[\alpha \] and \[\beta \], where \[\alpha <\beta \]

    A) -8,-16

    B) 8,16

    C) 8,15

    D) 4,9

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given,  \[{{x}^{2}}-23x+120=p\left( x \right)\]
     Let  \[\alpha ,\,\beta\] are the zeroes of  \[p\left( x \right)\]
                \[{{x}^{2}}-23x+120=0\]
     \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,{{x}^{2}}-15x-8x+120=0\]
     \[\Rightarrow \,x\left( x-15 \right)-8\left( x-15 \right)=0\]
     \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\left( x-8 \right)\left( x-15 \right)=0\]
     \[\Rightarrow \,\,x=8,\,x=15\]
