ZEROS (ROOTS) of a POLYNOMIAL

1. A zero of a polynomial p(x) is a number c such that p(c) = 0.
   OR x = c (or x -c = 0 ) is called the root of the polynomial equation p(x).

2. If p(x) = ax + b, a ≠ 0, is a linear polynomial, x = -b/a, is the only zero of p(x), i.e., a linear polynomial has one and only one zero.

3. A zero of a polynomial need not be 0.

4. 0 may be a zero of a polynomial.

5. Every linear polynomial has one and only one zero.

6. A polynomial can have more than one zero.

7. Zeros of the polynomial are also called roots of the polynomial.
