11) If p(k)=Ofor a polynomial p(x), then kis

Answer 1

Answer:

The zero of the polynomial is defined as any real value of x, for which the value of the polynomial becomes zero.

A real number k is a zero of a polynomial p(x), if p(k) = 0.

For example P(x)=x  sq.  −3x−4

then P(−1)=(−1) sq. −(3×−1)−4=0

and P(4)=(4) sq.  −(3×4)−4=0

∴ -1 and 4 are called the zeros of the quadratic polynomial x  sq.  −3x−4
