Question

The following figure shows the graph of y= p(x), where p(x) is a polynomial in variable x. The number of zeroes of the polynomial p(x) is

(a) 1
(b) 2
(c) 3
(d) 4
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is c) 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided graph of the function.

m

We need to find the number of zeros.

The number of zeros are the x coordinates on which y value is zero.

Or we can say that the points on which graph intersect the x axis.

Now consider the provided figure.

In the provided figure the graph touch x axis three times.

Hence, the number of zeros of the graph is 3.

Therefore, the correct option is c) 3

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(c) 3 is the correct option
