Check whether first is a factor of second .
x+1 , x3 -1
we will get ax3 + (b+a)x2 + (c+b)x + (c+d) and after this step how we are getting the value of 'a' as 1 , 'b' as -1 and 'c' as 1
Answer :
To check " x + 1 " is a factor of x3 - 1 , We substitute x = -1 in x3 - 1 and check if it gives us value as zero or not .
So, At x = -1
= ( - 1 )3 - 1
= - 1 - 1
= - 2 , So the value is not zero , we can say that " x + 1 " is not a factor of x3 - 1
And if we write ax3 + ( b + a ) x2 + ( c + b ) x + ( c + d )
So we know from relationship between zeros and coefficient
Sum of zeros = 0 ( From equation x3 - 1 )
So ,
Sum of zeros = ( From ax3 + ( b + a ) x2 + ( c + b ) x + ( c + d ) )
So these both are going to same as second equation we get from our equation x3 - 1 ,
So,
= 0
- b - a = 0
a = - b ----------------- ( 1 )
Sum of product of two zeros = 0 ( From equation x3 - 1 )
So ,
Sum of product of two zeros = ( From ax3 + ( b + a ) x2 + ( c + b ) x + ( c + d ) )
So, we get
= 0
c + b = 0
c = - b --------------- ( 2 )
From equation 1 and 2 , we get
a = c ----------------- ( 3 )
And
Product of all three zeros = - ( -1 ) = 1 ( From equation x3 - 1 )
So ,
Product of all three zeros = ( From ax3 + ( b + a ) x2 + ( c + b ) x + ( c + d ) )
So, we get
= 1
c + d = a , from equation 3, we get
a + d = a
d = 0
So we get our coefficient term is " ( c + d = c + 0 = c )
And our coefficient term in equation x3 - 1 is - 1 ,
So,
c = -1 ,
from equation 2
b = 1
and
from equation 3 , we get
a = - 1
