Q1.

The graphs of y = p(x) are given in Fig. 2.10 below, for some polynomials p(x). Find the number of zeroes of p(x), in each case.

(i)

 


Answer: In this graph, the polynomial p(x) has 0 real zeroes because the graph is parallel to the x-axis and does not intersect it at any point.

(ii)

 


Answer: In this graph, the polynomial p(x) has one real zeroes because the graph intersects the x-axis at only one point.

(iii)

 


Answer: In this graph, the polynomial p(x) has three real zeroes because it intersects the x-axis at three distinct points.

(iv)

 


Answer: In this graph, the polynomial p(x) has two real zeroes as it intersects the x-axis at two points.

(v)

 


Answer: In this graph, the polynomial p(x) has four real zeroes as it intersects the x-axis at four distinct points.

(vi)

 


Answer: In this graph, the polynomial p(x) has three real zeroes as it intersects the x-axis at three distinct points.
