Solution

Since two zeroes are 2 and 2
(x2)(x+2)=x22 is a factor of the given polynomial,
Now, we divide the given polynomial by x22
x22)¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯2x4+7x319x214x+30(2x2+7x152x44x2_________________________________7x315x214x+307x314x_________________________________ 15x2+30 15x2+30_________________________________0_________________________________

2x4+7x319x214x+30=(x22)(2x2+7x15)
Now, 2x2+7x15
=2x2+10x3x15
=2y(x5)3(x+5)=(x+5)(2x3)
So. its are given by x=5 and x=3/2 Hence the zeroes of the given polynomial are:
2,(2),(5) and 32 Ans.
