Question

Find a zero of the polynomial P(x) = 3x-12.

Answer 1

Answer:

p(x)=3x-2

p(0)=3×0-2

= 0-2

p(x)=-2

Answer 2

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

let the zero of the polynomial be a.

then,

P(a) = 0

we have,

P(x) = 3x-12

if a is zero of the polynomial, then

P(a) = 3a-12 = 0

→ 3a-12 = 0

→ 3a = 12

→ a = 4

so the zero of the given polynomial is 4.
