Question
Find the zero of the polynomial in $p(x) = 2x + 5$
✓
Answer
The given polynomial is,
$P(x) = 2x + 5$
put $P(x) = 0$
$2x + 5 = 0$
$2x = -5$
$x =\frac{-5}{2}$
Therefore, $x =\frac{-5}{2}$ is a zero of the polynomial $p(x) = 2x + 5$
$P(x) = 2x + 5$
put $P(x) = 0$
$2x + 5 = 0$
$2x = -5$
$x =\frac{-5}{2}$
Therefore, $x =\frac{-5}{2}$ is a zero of the polynomial $p(x) = 2x + 5$
