Question

The zero of the polynomial $p\left(x\right)=4x+3$ lies at $x$ = .

• A. $-\frac{4}{3}$
• B. $-\frac{3}{4}$
• C. 1
• D. $\frac{3}{4}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $-\frac{3}{4}$

The zero of a polynomial is the point at which it cuts the x-axis.
Hence, $p\left(x\right)=0$
$\Rightarrow 4x+3=0$
$\Rightarrow x=-\frac{3}{4}$.
