Let A=alpha,
B= beta,
given that , A+B=24,--(1).
A-B=8,--(2).
from (1) and (2) by elimination method,
2A=32,
A=16,
putting A=16 in (1).
16+B=24,
B=24-16=8,
sum of zeros=A+B=24,
product of zeros=A.B=24.8=182,
p(x)=x²-( sum of zeros )x+product of zeros,
=x²-24x+182,
verification of the relationship between zeros and Coefficient can be defined as:
sum of zeros=-b/a,
LHS=A+B=24,
RHS=-b/a=-(-24)/1=24,
LHS=RHS,
now product of zeros=c/a,
LHS=A.B=182,
RHS=c/a=182/1=182,
LHS=RHS
