Solution

The correct options are
C
-3

D
-5

Let $p (x) = x^{3} + 5 x^{2} - 9 x - 45$
$q (x) = x^{3} + 8 x^{2} + 15 x$

$p (x) = x^{3} + 5 x^{2} - 9 x - 45$

$p (x) = x^{2} (x + 5) - 9 (x + 5)$

$p (x) = (x + 5) (x^{2} - 9)$

$p (x) = (x + 5) (x + 3) (x - 3)$

$\Rightarrow$ Zeroes are -5,-3 and 3.

$q (x) = x^{3} + 8 x^{2} + 15 x$

$q (x) = x (x^{2} + 8 x + 15)$

$q (x) = x (x + 5) (x + 3)$

$\Rightarrow$ Zeroes are 0, -5 and -3

Therefore, common zeroes are -5 and -3.
