    -1 and - 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    f (x) = 4x² - 8kx + 8x - 9

    f (x) = 4x² - 8 (k-1) x - 9

    If one root of f (x) is the opposite of the other, then f (x) must be a difference of squares, which means - 8 (k-1) = 0.

    -8 (k-1) = 0

    k = 1

    Therefore, the other polynomial is:

    x² + 3x + 2

    (x + 1) (x + 2)

    The zeros are - 1 and - 2.
