Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
let the given polynomial be p(x)
Since 2 is the zero of polynomial
therefore ,
p(2)= 0
=> 2^2-3×2+a=0
=>a = 6-4 = 2
hence the value of a equals to 2

Let,
p(x) = x² - 3x + a
Given that: 2 is the zero of p(x).
After putting the value of the zero of a polynomial, results in 0 after evaluation.
∴ p(2) = 0
→ (2)² - 3(2) + a = 0
→ 4 - 6 + a = 0
→ - 2 + a = 0
→ a = 2
∴ The value of (a) in the given polynomial is (2).
