Question

If x = 3/2 is a zero of the polynomial of p(x) = 2x+kx-12, then find the value of k

Answer 1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

p(3/2) = 2x + kx - 12

0 = 2(3/2) + k(3/2) - 12

0 = 3 + k(3/2) - 12

0 = k(3/2) - 9

9 = k(3/2)

9×2/3 = k

k = 6

Answer 2

Hope this helps you ;)

$p(x) = 2x + kx - 12$

$p( \frac{3}{2} ) = 2 \times \frac{3}{2} + \frac{3}{2} k - 12 = 0$

$3 + \frac{3}{2} k = 12$

$\frac{3}{2} k = 9$

$k = 9 \times \frac{2}{3}$

$k = 6$
