Question

2. Find p(0),p(1) and p(2) for each of the following polynomials :
(iv) p (t) = (t + 2) (t + 3)
​

Answer 1

✤ Question:-

Find p(0), p(1) and p(2) for the following polynomial :

p(t) = (t + 2) (t + 3)

✤ Answer:-

• p(0)

Value of 't' = 0

Putting value of t in the given polynomial,

p(0) = [(0) + (2)] [(0) + (3)]

p(0) = (0 + 2) (0 + 3)

p(0) = (2) (3)

p(0) = 6

                             ______________________________

• p(1)

Value of 't' = 1

Putting value of t in the given polynomial,

p(1) = [(1) + (2)] [(1) + (3)]

p(1) = (1 + 2) (1 + 3)

p(1) = (3) (4)

p(1) = 12

                          ________________________________

• p(2)

Value of 't' = 2

Putting value of t in the given polynomial,

p(2) = [(2) + (2)] [(2) + (3)]

p(2) = (4) (5)

p(2) = 20
