Correct answer: 1
Explanation:
The given polynomial is: x + 2x² + 1
Rearranging in standard form: 2x² + x + 1
For a quadratic polynomial ax² + bx + c, the product of the zeroes is given by: Product = c / a
Here,
a = 2, b = 1, c = 1
So, Product = 1 / 2 = 0.5
Hence, the correct answer is: 1/2
If the roots of the quadratic equation \( ax^2 + bx + c = 0 \) are real and equal, then:
