FInd the condition that the zeroes of the polynomial `f(x) =x^3+3px^2+3qx+r` may be in A.P

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let `alpha-d,alpha and alpha+d` are the zeroes of the given polynomial.
Then, sum of zeroes ` = alpha-d+alpha+alpha+d = 3alpha`
`=> 3alpha = -3p => alpha = -p->(1)`
Product of zeroes taking two at a time ` = alpha(alpha-d)+ alpha(alpha+d)+(alpha-d)(alpha+d)`
`=alpha^2-alphad+alpha^2+alphad+alpha^2-d^2`
`=3alpha^2-d^2`
`=> 3alpha^2-d^2 = 3q->(2)`
Now, product of zeroes ` = alpha(alpha^2-d^2)`
