Question

If one of the polynomial x square -5x-6 is 6 then find the other zero

Answer 1

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

we have 6 as a zero of the polynomial x²-5x-6 and we have to find another zero.

In x²-5x-6, splitting the middle term.

=x²+x-6x-6

=x(x+1)-6(x+1)

=(x+1)(x-6)

There are two factors of x²-5x-6,

x+1 and x-6

zero of,

x+1= 0

x=-1

Therefore, -1 is the other zero of polynomial x²-5x-6.
