Question

Find the zero of the polynomial p(X)=ax+b​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

ax+b=0

ax=-b

x=-b÷a

so zero of this is -b÷a

Answer 2

Answer:

Zero of the polynomial is -b/a

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zero of a polynomial p(x)=ax+b we shall assume first

That p(x)=0. After that it will give us the value

ax+b=0

ax=-b

x=(-b/a)

So when we substitute this value in the given polynomial we will get p(x)=0

Let verify it

p(x)=ax+b

p(-b/a)=a(-b/a)+b=(-b)+b=0

Hence proved therefore the zero of the given polynomial is -b/a.
