Question

8. If p(x) is a polynomial of degree one and p(a)=0, then a is said to be: *

Zero of p (x)
Value of p(x)
Constant of p(x)
None of the above. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

a is said to be the 'Zero of p(x)'

Step-by-step explanation:

Zero of p(x)

Let p(x) = bx+c ------->(given in question that p(x) is one degree polynomial)

put x=a

p(a) = (b*a)+c = 0

∴ a is zero of p(x)

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer of this question is Zero of p (x).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -  p(x) is a polynomial of degree one and p(a) = 0

To Find - Write  p(x) is a polynomial of degree one and p(a)=0, then a is said to be.

Zero of p (x) is a polynomial of degree one and p(a)=0, .

p(x) is a polynomial of at least one degree, which means that the largest power of variable x is at least one.

as well as p(k) = 0

If p(x)=bx+c, where b cannot be 0 and p(k)=0, then the remainder will be equal to 0 when the above polynomial is divided by x-k, according to the remainder theorem.

Because 0 is the remainder, we may say that (x-k) divides the polynomial fully, and k is the polynomial's zero.

As a result, k is p's zero (x).
