    A quadratic polynomial, whose zeroes are \[-3\] and 4, is:                                         (NCERT EXEMPLAR)

    A) \[{{x}^{2}}-x+12\]     

    B) \[{{x}^{2}}+x+12\]

    C) \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{2}-\frac{x}{2}-6\]

    D) \[2{{x}^{2}}+2x-24\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Let the zeroes of a quadratic polynomial are \[\alpha =-3\] and \[\beta =4.\]
    Then,    sum of zeroes \[=\alpha +\beta =-3+4=1\]
    Product of zeroes \[=\alpha \beta =-3\times 4=-12\]
    \[\therefore \] Required polynomial
    \[={{x}^{2}}-(sum\,\,of\,\,zeroes)x+(product\,\,of\,zeroes)\]\[={{x}^{2}}-(1)x+(-12)={{x}^{2}}-x-12\] i.e., \[\frac{{{x}^{2}}}{2}-\frac{x}{2}-6\]
