Step-by-step explanation:
p(x) = 3x³+16x²+15x-18
p(2/3) = 0
⇒x = 2/3
⇒3x = 2
⇒3x-2 = 0
∴ (3x-2) is a factor of p(x).
On dividing p(x) by (3x-2), we get
3x-2 ) 3x³+16x²+15x-18 ( x²+6x+9
3x³- 2x²
- +
18x²+15x-18
18x²- 12x
- +
27x-18
27x-18
- +
×
∴ p(x) = (3x-2) (x²+6x+9)
∴ the other zeros of p(x) are given by (x²+6x+9).
Now, x²+6x+9 = 0 ⇒x²+3x+3x+9 = 0
⇒x(x+3)+3(x+3) = 0
⇒(x+3) (x+3) = 0
⇒x+3 = 0 or x+3 = 0
⇒x = -3 or x = -3
Hence, the other zeros of p(x) are -3 & -3.
