Question

Zero of the polynomial $p\left(x\right)$ where $p\left(x\right)=ax,a\ne 0$ is :

• A. 1
• B. a
• C. 0
• D. $\frac{1}{a}$

Answer 1

The correct option is C 0

Zeroes of the polynomial is the value of the variable for which the polynomial becomes $0$ i.e. $p\left(x\right)=0$.

Here, $p\left(x\right)=ax$.

Putting $p\left(x\right)=0$, we get,

$ax=0$

or, $x=0$ $(\because a\ne 0)$

So, option $C$ is correct.
