1. $f(x)=3 x+1, x=-1 / 3$
2. $f(x)=x^{2}-1, x=(1,-1)$
3. $g(x)=3 x^{2}-2, x=\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}, \frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$
4. $p(x)=x^{3}-6 x^{2}+11 x-6, x=1,2,3$
5. $f(x)=5 x-\pi, x=4 / 5$
6. $f(x)=x^{2}, x=0$
7. $f(x)=1 x+m, x=-m / 1$
8. $f(x)=2 x+1, x=1 / 2$
1. f(x) = 3x + 1, x = −1/3
we know that ,
f(x) = 3x + 1
substitute x = −1/3 in f(x)
f( −1/3) = 3(−1/3) + 1
= -1 + 1
= 0
Since, the result is $0 x=-1 / 3$ is the root of $3 x+1$
2. $f(x)=x^{2}-1, x=(1,-1)$
we know that,
$f(x)=x^{2}-1$
Given that x = (1, -1)
substitute x = 1 in f(x)
$f(1)=1^{2}-1$
= 1 - 1
= 0
Now, substitute x = (-1) in f(x)
$f(-1)=(-1)^{2}-1$
= 1 - 1
= 0
Since, the results when $x=(1,-1)$ are 0 they are the roots of the polynomial $f(x)=x^{2}-1$
3. $g(x)=3 x^{2}-2, x=\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}, \frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$
We know that
$g(x)=3 x^{2}-2$
Given that,
$x=\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}, \frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$
Substitute x = 2/√3 in g(x)
$g\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)=3\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^{2}-2$
= 3(4/3) - 2
= 4 - 2
= 2 ≠ 0
Now, Substitute x = - 2/√3 in g(x)
$g\left(\frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)=3\left(\frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^{2}-2$
= 3(4/3) - 2
= 4 - 2
= 2 ≠ 0
Since, the results when
$x=\left(\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}, \frac{-2}{\sqrt{3}}\right)$ are not 0, they are roots of $3 x^{2}-2$
4. $p(x)=x^{3}-6 x^{2}+11 x-6, x=1,2,3$
We know that,
$p(x)=x^{3}-6 x^{2}+11 x-6$
given that the values of x are 1, 2 , 3
substitute x = 1 in p(x)
$p(1)=1^{3}-6(1)^{2}+11(1)-6$
= 1 - (6 * 1) + 11 - 6
= 1 - 6 + 11 - 6
= 0
Now, substitute x = 2 in p(x)
$P(2)=2^{3}-6(2)^{2}+11(2)-6$
= (2 * 3) - (6 * 4) + (11 * 2) - 6
= 8 - 24 - 22 - 6
= 0
Now, substitute x = 3 in p(x)
$P(3)=3^{3}-6(3)^{2}+11(3)-6$
= (3 * 3) - (6 * 9) + (11 * 3) - 6
= 27 - 54 + 33 - 6
= 0
Since, the result is 0 for $x=1,2,3$ these are the roots of $x^{3}-6 x^{2}+11 x-6$
(5) f(x) = 5x − π, x = 4/5
we know that,
f(x) = 5x − π
Given that, x = 4/5
Substitute the value of x in f(x)
f(4/5) = 5(4/5) - π
= 4 - π
≠ 0
Since, the result is not equal to zero, x = 4/5 is not the root of the polynomial 5x - π
(6) $f(x)=x^{2}, x=0$
we know that, $f(x)=x^{2}$
Given that value of x is '0'
Substitute the value of x in f(x)
$f(0)=0^{2}$
= 0
Since, the result is zero, $x=0$ is the root of $x^{2}$
7. f(x) = lx + m, x = - m/l
We know that,
f(x) = lx + m
Given, that x = - m/l
Substitute the value of x in f(x)
$\mathrm{f}\left(-\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{l}}\right)=\mathrm{I}\left(-\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\mathrm{l}}\right)+\mathrm{m}$
= - m + m
= 0
Since, the result is 0, x = - m/l is the root of lx + m
(8) $f(x)=2 x+1, x=1 / 2$
We know that,
f(x) = 2x + 1
Given that x = 1/2
Substitute the value of x and f(x)
f(1/2) = 2(1/2) + 1
= 1 + 1
= 2 ≠ 0
Since, the result is not equal to zero
x = 1/2 is the root of 2x + 1
