Question

check whether 1and 2 are the zeroes of the polynomial p(x)=(x-3)(x-1)​

Answer 1

Answer:

p(x)=(x-3)(x-1)

putting x=1 we get,

p(1)=(1-3)(1-1)

=(-2) (0)

=0

putting x=2 we get,

p(2)=(2-3)(2-1)

=(-1) (1)

=(-1)

therefore, we can say that 1 is a zero of the given polynomial but not 2

Answer 2

Answer:

hey mate,, here is your answer...

Explanation :

p(x) = (x-3)(x-1)

put, x = 1

:- p(1) = (1-3)(1-1)

= (-2)(0)

p(1) = 0

:- 1 is zero of the given polynomial

p(x) = (x-3)(x-1)

put, x = 2

:- p(2) = (2-3)(2-1)

= (-1)(1)

p(2) = -1

:- 2 is not zero of the given polynomial

hope it helps u frnd !
