Question

p(x)=ax+b;x=-a/b
verify whether the value of x given in each case are the zeros of the polynomial or not
​

Answer 1

Answer:

putting x = -a/b , we get ,

p(x)= a × (-a/b) +b

= -a²/b +b

on taking LCM we get

p(x)= -a²+b²/ b

now as -a²+b²/b is not zero so given value of x is not

a zero for the given polynomial p(x)
