4. The degree of the polynomial (x + 1)(x2 – x – x4 +1) is:
(A)2
(B) 3
(C) 4
(D) 5
Answer: (D)
Explanation: Since the highest degree variable in first bracket is x and in second bracket is x4 on multiplying x with x4.the highest power we obtain is 5.

(B) a = 5, b = –1
(C) a = 2, b = – 6
(D) a = 0, b = – 6
Answer: (D)
6. Given that one of the zeroes of the cubic polynomial ax3 + bx2 + cx + d is zero, the product of the other two zeroes is

(B) c/a
(C) 0
(D) 3
Answer: (B)
7. If one of the zeroes of the cubic polynomial x3 + ax2 + bx + c is –1, then the
Product of the other two zeroes is
(A) b – a + 1
(B) b – a – 1
(C) a – b + 1
(D) a – b –1
Answer: (A)
8. If one of the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial (k – 1)x2 + kx + 1 is –3, then the value of k is
(A) 4/3

(A) 1
(B) –1
(C) 0
(D) –2
Answer: (A)
14. If one of the zeroes of a quadratic polynomial of the form x2 + ax + b is the negative of the other, then it
(A) has no linear term and the constant term is negative.
