The correct Answer is:
To verify that 1, 2, and 3 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial \( p(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 \) and to check the relation between its zeroes and coefficients, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Verify the Zeroes 1. **Check for \( x = 1 \)**: \[ p(1) = 1^3 - 6 \cdot 1^2 + 11 \cdot 1 - 6 \] \[ = 1 - 6 + 11 - 6 = 0 \] Hence, \( x = 1 \) is a zero of the polynomial. 2. **Check for \( x = 2 \)**: \[ p(2) = 2^3 - 6 \cdot 2^2 + 11 \cdot 2 - 6 \] \[ = 8 - 24 + 22 - 6 = 0 \] Hence, \( x = 2 \) is a zero of the polynomial. 3. **Check for \( x = 3 \)**: \[ p(3) = 3^3 - 6 \cdot 3^2 + 11 \cdot 3 - 6 \] \[ = 27 - 54 + 33 - 6 = 0 \] Hence, \( x = 3 \) is a zero of the polynomial. ### Conclusion for Step 1: Since \( p(1) = 0 \), \( p(2) = 0 \), and \( p(3) = 0 \), we can conclude that 1, 2, and 3 are indeed the zeroes of the polynomial \( p(x) \). --- ### Step 2: Verify the Relation between Zeroes and Coefficients Let the zeroes be \( \alpha = 1 \), \( \beta = 2 \), and \( \gamma = 3 \). 1. **Sum of the Zeroes**: \[ \alpha + \beta + \gamma = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 \] According to Vieta's formulas, this should equal \( -\frac{\text{coefficient of } x^2}{\text{coefficient of } x^3} = -\frac{-6}{1} = 6 \). 2. **Sum of the Product of the Zeroes Taken Two at a Time**: \[ \alpha\beta + \beta\gamma + \gamma\alpha = (1 \cdot 2) + (2 \cdot 3) + (3 \cdot 1) = 2 + 6 + 3 = 11 \] According to Vieta's formulas, this should equal \( \frac{\text{coefficient of } x}{\text{coefficient of } x^3} = \frac{11}{1} = 11 \). 3. **Product of the Zeroes**: \[ \alpha \beta \gamma = 1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 = 6 \] According to Vieta's formulas, this should equal \( -\frac{\text{constant term}}{\text{coefficient of } x^3} = -\frac{-6}{1} = 6 \). ### Conclusion for Step 2: The relations hold true: - Sum of zeroes \( = 6 \) - Sum of products of zeroes taken two at a time \( = 11 \) - Product of zeroes \( = 6 \) Thus, we have verified both that 1, 2, and 3 are the zeroes of the polynomial and the relations between the zeroes and coefficients. ---

To verify that 1, 2, and 3 are the zeroes of the cubic polynomial \( p(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6 \) and to check the relation between its zeroes and coefficients, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Verify the Zeroes 1. **Check for \( x = 1 \)**: \[ p(1) = 1^3 - 6 \cdot 1^2 + 11 \cdot 1 - 6 \] ...
