Question

Find the zero of the polynomial p(x) = ax + b ; where a is not equal to zero

Answer 1

p(x)=ax+b=> ax+b=0=> ax=-b=> x=-b/aSo, -b/a is the zero of the polynomial ax+b.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey friend,

Here's your required answer:-

=================================

p(x) = ax

p(x) = 0

ax = 0

x = 0/a

x = 0

{0 by something is equals to 0}

Therefore,0 is the zero of the polynomial.

Checking:-

p(0) = a(0)

= 0

Hope it helps
