Question

if 1 is the zero of the polynomial p(x)=ax2-3(a-1)x-1,then find the value of a​

Answer 1

Answer:

Here you go!

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x)=1, As its given that 1 is the zero of the polynomial.

Therefore:

Substitute the value of x, that is 1

p(x)=a(1)∧2- 3(a-1)1-1

p(x)= a-3a-3-1

p(x)= -2a-4

     = -2a=-4

     = a= -4/-2

         *a=2*
