If 1 is the zero of the polynomial p(a) = x2a2 - 3xa + 3x - 1, find the value of x.

Please answer the above question with each and every single step........please ................

If 1 is the zero of polynomial then

  • 2

let p ( a ) =x2a2- 3xa + 3x-1

since,1is a zero of p ( a )

so, x-1 is a factor

hence ,

p ( 1 )=x212 -3x1 +3x -1

=x2-3x +3x -1

=x2 - 3x + 3x -1

=x2-1

or, x2 = 1

or, x = /-1

or, x= +-1

since ,p ( 1 )=0

so, x= +-1 =0

or, x=+1 , x = -1
