उत्तर

One of the zeroes of the polynomial 2x2 + 7x – 4 is `underlinebb(-1/2)`.

Explanation:

 Let p(x) = 2x2 + 7x – 4

= 2x2 + 8x – x – 4  ...[By splitting middle term]

= 2x(x + 4) – 1(x + 4)

= (2x – 1)(x + 4)

For zeroes of p(x), put p(x) = 0

⇒ (2x – 1)(x + 4) = 0

⇒ 2x – 1 = 0 and x + 4 = 0

⇒ x = `1/2` and x = – 4

Hence, one of the zeroes of the polynomial p(x) is `1/2`.
