Question

Verify that 1 and 2 are the zeros of the polynomial:-
(x-1) (x-2)

Answer 1

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

p(x)=(x-1)(x-2)

=x^2-3x+2

If 1,2 are zeros of the polynomial then if we substitute in the place of x ,we should get p(x)=0

p(1)=1^2-3(1)+2

=3-3=0

so 1 is zero of the polynomial

p(2)=2^2-3(2)+2

=6-6=0

so 2 is zero of the polynomial

HENCE VERIFIED THAT 1,2 ARE ZEROS OF POLYNOMIAL P(X).
