Question:
If one zero of the quadratic polynomial $k x^{2}+3 x+k$ is 2 then find the value of $k$.
Solution:
Given: x = 2 is one zero of the quadratic polynomial kx2 + 3x + k
Therefore, It will satisfy the above polynomial.
Now, we have
$k(2)^{2}+3(2)+k=0$
$\Rightarrow 4 k+6+k=0$
$\Rightarrow 5 k+6=0$
$\Rightarrow k=-\frac{6}{5}$
