Question on: WAEC Mathematics - 2000

Find the equation whose roots are -8 and 5

A
\(x^2 + 13x + 40=0\)
B
\(x^2 - 13x - 40=0\)
C
\(x^2 - 3x +40=0\)
D
\(x^2 + 3x - 40=0\)
Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: D

Equation with roots -8 and 5: (x + 8)(x - 5) = 0

\(x^2 - 5x + 8x - 40 = 0\)

\(x^2 + 3x - 40 = 0\)
