Here's the question bank on all the mathematics topics.
If (y + 2) is a common factor of ay2 + by + c and by2 + ay + c, then:
CALCULATION:Let f1(y) = ay2 + by + c & f2(y) = by2 + ay + cAs (y + 2) is the common factor of f1(y) and f2(y)? f1(- 2) = f2(- 2) = 0? a × (- 2)2 + b × (- 2) + c = b × (-2)2 + a × (-2) + c? 4a - 2b + c = 4b - 2a + c? 4a - 4b - 2b + 2a = 0? 4a + 2a - 4b - 2b = 0? 6a - 6b = 0? a - b = 0? a = bAs f1(- 2) = f2(- 2) = 0 ? f1(- 2) + f2(- 2) = 0? (4a - 2b + c) + (4b - 2a + c) = 0? 4a - 2a + 4b - 2b + c + c = 0? 2a + 2b + 2c = 0? a + b + c = 0 If (x - a) is the factor of the polynomial f(x), then f(a) = 0
