Question

The zeroes of the polynomial p(x) = 2x² – x – 3 are ______.

Options

• `-3/2, 1`

• `3/2, 1`

• `-3/2, -1`

• `3/2, -1`

Answer 1

The zeroes of the polynomial p(x) = 2x² – x – 3 are `underlinebb(3/2, -1)`.

Explanation:

2x² – x – 3

2x² – 3x + 2x – 3

x(2x – 3) + 1(2x – 3)

(2x – 3) (x + 1)

Zeroes are `3/2` and – 1
