Question

Evaluate the polynomial when a.x=0 and b.x=-1 x2 – 3x - 7

Answer 1

Answer:

a) -7 & b) -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

a) x = 0

Solution ↦

$x2 - 3x - 7 \\ = 0 \times 2 - 3 \times 0 - 7 \\ = - 7$

b) x = -1

Solution ↦

$x2 - 3x - 7 \\ = - 1 \times 2 - 3 \times ( - 1) - 7 \\ = - 2 + 3 - 7 \\ = - 9 + 3 \\ = - 6$
