If one zero of the polynomial x^2 – 5x + 6 is 2 then the other zero is?

1. f(x) = x²-5x+6

   one zero of the polynomial is 2 then

   g(x) = (x-2)

   By dividing f(x) from g(x) we get the other zero of the polynomial

   x-2) x²-5x+6( x-3

   x²-2x

   ___(-)_(+)__________

   -3x +6

   -3x +6

   _____(+)__(-)_______

   0

   Therefore the other zero of the polynomial is

   x-3 = 0

   x = 3

   Hope it helps you

2. one zero of the polynomial is 2

   we know that sum of zeros will be -b/a

   here b=-5

   a=1

   -b/a=2+x

   -(-5)/1 = 2+x

   5 = 2+x

   5-2 = x

   3 = x
