Solution
Let `alpha = 3` and `beta = -3` be the given zeros and y be the third zero of the polynomial `x^3 + x^2 -9x-9` then
Bt using `alpha + beta + y = (-text{coefficient of }x^2)/(text{coefficient of } x^3)`
`alpha + beta + y = -1/1`
`alpha + beta + y = -1`
Substituting `alpha = 3` and `beta =-3` in `alpha + beta + y = -1`, we get
` 3 - 3 + y =-1`
`y = -1`
Hence, the correct choice is `(a).`
