Find the zeroes of the polynomial in each of the following :

i) p(x) = x - 4

ii) g(x) = 3 - 6x

iii)q(x) = 2x - 7

iv) h(y) = 2y

Answers (2)

i) 4

Solution

p(x)=x-4

We know that for finding the zero of a polynomial, we need to find a value of x for which the polynomial will be zero

i.e., p(x)=0

x-4=0

x=4

Hence 4 is a zero of the given polynomial.  

ii)  \frac{1}{2}

Solution

  g(x)=3-6x

  We know that for finding the zero of a polynomial, we need to find a value of x for which the polynomial will be zero

  i.e., g(x)=0

  3-6x=0

  3=6x

  \frac{3}{6}=x

  x=\frac{1}{2}

  Hence \frac{1}{2}  is a zero of the given polynomial.

iii)\frac{7}{2}

Solution

  q(x)=2x-7

  We know that for finding the zero of a polynomial, we need to find a value of x for which the polynomial will be zero

  i.e., q(x)=0

  2x-7=0

  2x=7

  x=\frac{7}{2}

  Hence \frac{7}{2}  is a zero of the given polynomial.

 

iv) 0

Solution

 We know that for finding the zero of a polynomial, we need to find a value of x for which the polynomial will be zero

  i.e., h(x)=0

  2y=0

  y=\frac{0}{2}

  y=0

  Hence 0 is a zero of the given polynomial.

  1. p(x)=x-4

    0 =x-4

    x =4

  2. g(x)=3-6x

    6x=3

    x=1/3

  3. q(x)=2x-7

    0 =2x-7

    -2x=-7

    x =7/2

  4. h(y)=2y

    0 =2y

    y =0
