Question

The number of zeroes for the polynomial y = p(x) from the given graph is :

• A. 3
• B. 1
• C. 2
• D. 0

Answer 1

The correct option is B 1

The number of zeroes of p(x) is the number of times the curve intersects the x-axis, i.e; attains the value 0.

Here, the polynomial p(x) meets the x-axis at 1 point.

So, number of zeroes $=1$.

Hence, $B$ is correct option.
