The number of zeroes of the polynomial whose graph meets the x-axis at exactly two points is
A1
B0
C2
D3
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. 2
1. The zeroes of $p(x)$ are exactly the x-coordinates where the graph meets the x-axis.
2. Two intersection points means **2** zeroes.
3. In general, the number of zeroes equals the number of such intersection points.
