How many real zeros in the polynomial x3 - x2 + 2?1. 32. 03. 14. 2

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 1

Given:

⇒ p(x) = x3 - x2 + 2

Calculation:

A rational zero theorem tells that if p/q is a zero then p = factor of leading term and q = factor of constant.

⇒ p/q for p(x) = +_1 and +_1/2

So, dividing p(x) with (x + 1) gives p(x) = 0, then (-1) is the only real zero function of given polynomial.

∴ For given polynomial, there is only one real zero.

  - A root or a zero of a polynomial are the value(s) of X that cause the polynomial to = 0.
