The graph of $y=p(x)$ is given below for a polynomial $p(x)$. Find the number of zeroes of $p(x)$.
(N/A) The number of zeroes of the polynomial $p(x)$ is equal to the number of points where the graph of $y=p(x)$ intersects the $x$-axis.
In the given graph,the curve intersects the $x$-axis at $3$ distinct points.
Therefore,the number of zeroes of the polynomial $p(x)$ is $3$.

View SolutionDivide the polynomial $p(x)$ by the polynomial $g(x)$ and find the quotient and remainder in the following case:
$p(x) = x^{4} - 3x^{2} + 4x + 5$,$g(x) = x^{2} + 1 - x$
$p(x) = x^{4} - 3x^{2} + 4x + 5$,$g(x) = x^{2} + 1 - x$
