Question
Find a zero of the polynomial p(x) = 2x + 1
✓
Answer
Finding a zero of p(x), is the same as solving the equation p(x) = 0
Now, 2x + 1 = 0 gives us $x=-\frac{1}{2}$
So, $-\frac{1}{2}$ is a zero of the polynomial 2x + 1 $$ $$ $$
Now, 2x + 1 = 0 gives us $x=-\frac{1}{2}$
So, $-\frac{1}{2}$ is a zero of the polynomial 2x + 1 $$ $$ $$
