Question

Find zero of polynomial p(x) =2x+5 .

Answer 1

2x + 5 = 0,  hence  zero  is  x =  -5/2

Answer 2

Answer:

$x = \frac{-5}{2}$  is the zero of the polynomial p(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeroes of the polynomial is defined as the value of x for for which the polynomial gives the value zero.

It is also called the root of the polynomial.

Now, here p(x) = 2x + 5

To find the zero, let 2x + 5 = 0

⇒  2x = -5

or, $x = \frac{-5}{2}$

So $x = \frac{-5}{2}$  is the zero of the polynomial p(x).
