Sum and product of the roots of 3x² - 6x - 45 = 0?
Determine the values of the numerical coefficients; a, b, and c.Only "a"has a positive value.Since the two mathematical operations used are both subtractions, then the values of "b" and "c" must be negative.
Substitute the given values into the formula.
SUM OF THE ROOTS
Hence, the sum of the roots is 2.
PRODUCT OF THE ROOTS
Hence, the product of the roots is -15.
