A polynomial $p (x)$ has $p (4) = 0$ . This means:

Class 10Zeroes of a PolynomialAlgebra — Polynomials

A4 is a zero of p $(x)$
B $x = 0$ is a zero
Cp $(x)$ has no zero
Dthe leading coefficient is 4

Step-by-Step Solution

By definition, if

p (a) = 0

then a is a zero of

p (x)

. Here

p (4) = 0

, so 4 is a zero.

Answer: A) 4 is a zero of p

(x)
