Solution

The correct option is D

3 and 4


Given zeroes are 2,2 and 2

g(x) = (x2)(x+2)(x2) =(x22)(x2) = x32x22x+4

Dividing p(x) by g(x)


x27x+12x32x22x+4x59x4+24x36x2+52x+48 x52x42x3+4x2–––––––––––––––––––––2 7x4+26x310x2+52x 7x4+14x314x228x––––––––––––––––––––––––––– 12x324x2+24x+48 12x324x224x+48–––––––––––––––––––––––– 0

q(x) = x27x+12

p(x) = g(x) h(x)

=(x32x22x+4)(x27x+12)

The other two zeroes are in x27x+12

=x24x3x+12 = x(x4)3(x4) = (x3)(x4)

Hence, the zeroes are 3 and 4
