Solution

The correct option is B False

Finding the zero of x-3:

Let p(x)=x-3.

In general, we can say that a zero of a polynomial p(x) is a number c, such that p(c)=0.

To find the zero of p(x), equate it with 0, we get,

p(x)=0x-3=0x=0+3x=3

Therefore, 3 is the zero of polynomial x-3.

Hence, the given statement is False.
