Question

The zeroes of the quadratic polynomial $a{x}^2+bx+c$ and the roots of the quadratic equation $a{x}^2+bx+c=0$ are equal.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The terms zeros and roots are as follows:
A zero is of a function. It is that value of x that makes the polynomial f(x) equal to 0.
A root is of an equation. It is a solution to the polynomial equation, f(x) = 0.
Even though there is a technical difference, the zeroes and roots are the same since they satisfy the polynomial when equated to zero.
