Question
Verify whether the following zeroes of the polynomial, indicated against them.
`p(x) = 3x + 1, x = -1/3`
Advertisements
Solution
If `x =-1/3` is a zero of given polynomial p(x) = 3x + 1, then `p(-1/3)` should be 0.
Here, `p(-1/3) = 3(-1/3) + 1`
= −1 + 1
= 0
Therefore, x = `-1/3` is a zero of the given polynomial.
