Find the zero of the polynomial : $p(x)=c x+d, \,c \neq 0, \,c,\,d$ are real numbers.

A

$-\frac{ d }{ c }$

B

$d$

C

$\frac{ d }{ c }$

D

$-\frac{ c }{ d }$

Solution

Since   $p ( x )= cx + d$                          $\therefore $ $p ( x )=0$

$\Rightarrow$          $c x+d=0$     or        $c x=-\,d$

or        $x=-\,\frac{d}{c}$

Thus, a zero of $cx + d$ is $-\frac{ d }{ c }$
