प्रश्न
The graph of a polynomial f(x) is as shown in Fig. 2.21. Write the number of real zeros of f(x).
उत्तर
The graph of a polynomial `F(x)` touches x−axis at two points
We know that if a curve touches the x-axis at two points then it has two common zeros of `f(x)`.
Hence the number of zeros of `f (x )`, in this case is 2.

The figure given alongside shows the path of a diver, when she takes a jump from the diving board. Clearly it is a parabola.
Annie was standing on a diving board, 48 feet above the water level. She took a dive into the pool. Her height (in feet) above the water level at any time‘t’ in seconds is given by the polynomial h(t) such that h(t) = -16t2 + 8t + k.
