Question

the graph of the polynomial P of X cut the x-axis at two places and touches it at four places the number of zeros of P of X is ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of Zeroes of P of X = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the polynomial P of X cut the x-axis at two places and touches it at four places

Whereever the graph cut the x axis or touches the x axis the value of y = 0

=> P(x) = 0

Number of Zeroes = Number of times X axis cutted + Number of times x - axis touches

=  2 + 4

= 6

Number of Zeroes of P of X = 6

Answer 2

Answer:

Here the no. of zeroes represents the no. of values of x for which p(x) is zero.

So here, we see that the graph cuts the x-axis at 2 points which implies p(x) is zero at these 2 points only.
