Question

Zeros of the polynomial $x^2-7x+10$ are :

• A. $-2$ and $-5$
• B. 3 and 4
• C. 2 and 5
• D. 2 and $-5$

Answer 1

The correct option is C 2 and 5

$x^2-7x+10$

$=x^2-2x-5x+10$

$=x(x-2)-5(x-2)$

$=(x-2)(x-5)$

As, $(x-2)$ and $(x-5)$ are the factors of the given polynomial,so,

Zeroes of the polynomial are: $2$ and $5$.

Therefore, option $C$ is correct.
