If α and β are the zeros of the polynomial f(x) = 5x2 ‒ 7x + 1, find the value of 
It is given in the question that,
Zeros of the polynomial 5x2 – 7x + 1 are 
Now by using the relationship between the zeros of the quadratic polynomial we have:
Sum of zeros = 
and product of zeros = 
= 
and 
= 
and 
Now, we have:
= 
= 
= 7
