p(x)=x2-1;x=-2 find wheter the following zeroes of the pollynomials are indicated towsrds them​

Sagot :

Given:

The polynomial is:

[tex]p(x)=x^2-1[/tex]

To find:

Whether [tex]x=-2[/tex] is a zero of the given polynomial or not.

Solution:

If [tex]x=c[/tex] is a zero of a polynomial, then [tex]f(c)=0[/tex].

We have,

[tex]p(x)=x^2-1[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-2[/tex] in the given polynomial.

[tex]p(-2)=(-2)^2-1[/tex]

[tex]p(-2)=4-1[/tex]

[tex]p(-2)=3[/tex]

Since [tex]p(-2)\neq 0[/tex], therefore [tex]x=-2[/tex] is not a zero of the given polynomial.
