Question

If the factors of a polynomial are x-5 and x+2, what values of x make that polynomial 0?

Answer 1

x - 5 => x = 5

x +2 =>x = -2......

hope it help you

Answer 2

We can find the values of x that make polynomial 0 by equating it’s factors to 0

In this case,

x-5=0 and x+2=0

x = 5 or -2

Hence x= 5 or -2

Hope you have understood.
