The correct Answer is:
To find the zeroes of the quadratic equation \( \sqrt{3}x^2 - 8x + 4\sqrt{3} \) and verify the relationship between the zeroes and coefficients, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the quadratic equation Let \( p(x) = \sqrt{3}x^2 - 8x + 4\sqrt{3} \). ### Step 2: Factor the quadratic expression To factor the quadratic, we look for two numbers that multiply to \( a \cdot c \) (where \( a = \sqrt{3} \) and \( c = 4\sqrt{3} \)) and add to \( b \) (where \( b = -8 \)). 1. Calculate \( a \cdot c = \sqrt{3} \cdot 4\sqrt{3} = 4 \cdot 3 = 12 \). 2. We need two numbers that multiply to \( 12 \) and add to \( -8 \). The numbers are \( -6 \) and \( -2 \). Thus, we can rewrite the quadratic as: \[ p(x) = \sqrt{3}x^2 - 6x - 2x + 4\sqrt{3} \] ### Step 3: Group the terms Now, we group the terms: \[ = (\sqrt{3}x^2 - 6x) + (-2x + 4\sqrt{3}) \] ### Step 4: Factor by grouping Now, we factor out common terms from each group: \[ = x(\sqrt{3}x - 6) - 2(\sqrt{3}x - 2) \] Now, we can factor out \( (\sqrt{3}x - 2) \): \[ = (\sqrt{3}x - 2)(x - 2\sqrt{3}) \] ### Step 5: Set the factors to zero To find the zeroes, we set each factor to zero: 1. \( \sqrt{3}x - 2 = 0 \) 2. \( x - 2\sqrt{3} = 0 \) Solving these gives: 1. \( \sqrt{3}x = 2 \) → \( x = \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \) 2. \( x = 2\sqrt{3} \) ### Step 6: List the zeroes The zeroes of the quadratic are: 1. \( x_1 = 2\sqrt{3} \) 2. \( x_2 = \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \) ### Step 7: Verify the relationship between the zeroes and coefficients For a quadratic \( ax^2 + bx + c \), the relationships are: - Sum of the zeroes \( x_1 + x_2 = -\frac{b}{a} \) - Product of the zeroes \( x_1 \cdot x_2 = \frac{c}{a} \) #### Calculate the sum of the zeroes: \[ x_1 + x_2 = 2\sqrt{3} + \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \] Finding a common denominator: \[ = \frac{6\sqrt{3}}{3} + \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} = \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{3} \] Now, calculate \( -\frac{b}{a} \): \[ -\frac{-8}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{8}{\sqrt{3}} = \frac{8\sqrt{3}}{3} \] Thus, the sum of the zeroes is verified. #### Calculate the product of the zeroes: \[ x_1 \cdot x_2 = 2\sqrt{3} \cdot \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} = \frac{4 \cdot 3}{3} = 4 \] Now, calculate \( \frac{c}{a} \): \[ \frac{4\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}} = 4 \] Thus, the product of the zeroes is verified. ### Final Result The zeroes of the quadratic equation \( \sqrt{3}x^2 - 8x + 4\sqrt{3} \) are \( 2\sqrt{3} \) and \( \frac{2\sqrt{3}}{3} \), and the relationships between the zeroes and coefficients are verified. ---
