Question

In the given graph, the polynomial \(p(x)\) is shown. Number of zeroes of \(p(x)\) is

• A. 3
• B. 2
• C. 1
• D. 4

Hint:

Each x-intercept of a polynomial graph represents a zero (root) of the polynomial.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Given:
Graph of polynomial \(p(x)\) is shown.
We need to find the number of zeroes of \(p(x)\).

Step 1: Understand zeroes of a polynomial from its graph
Zeroes of polynomial are the points where the graph intersects the x-axis.

Step 2: Count the x-intercepts from the graph
From the given graph, \(p(x)\) crosses the x-axis at three points.

Final Answer:
Number of zeroes of \(p(x)\) is 3.
