Question

Verify whether the following are zeros of the polynomial, indicated against them, or not

p(x) = ax + b, x = `(-"b")/"a"`

Sum
Advertisements

Solution

p(x) = ax + b, x = `(-"b")/"a"`

`"p"((-"b")/"a") = "a"((-"b")/"a") + "b"`

= −b + b

= 0

∴ `(-"b")/"a"` is the zero of the polynomial.
