Answer 2

$\huge\mathfrak\blue{Answer:}$

Zero of Polynomial:

• The zero or root of the Polynomial are the value of x for which the value of Polynomial becomes zero

Given:

• We have been given a Polynomial Function
• P( x ) = ax + b

To Find:

• We have to find the zero of given linear Polynomial

Solution:

Let y be the zero of given Polynomial

$\implies P( x ) = ax + b$

Putting x = y in given Polynomial

$\implies P( y ) = ay + b$_____ ( 1 )

Since y is the zero of P( x )

$\implies P ( y ) = 0$

$\implies ay + b = 0$

$\implies ay = ( -b )$

$\implies y = - \dfrac{b}{a}$

The zero of Polynomial is ( -b/a )
