Q2 of 90 Page 27

For each polynomial of the following polynomials, find the value of p(2), p(1) and p(0).

p(x) = x2 – x + 1

p(2) means substitute value 2 in the polynomial in place of variable


p(1) means substitute value 1 in the polynomial in place of variable


p(0) means substitute value 0 in the polynomial in place of variable


p(x) = x2 – x + 1


the variable is x substitute it with values 2, 1 and 0 to find p(2), p(1) and p(0) respectively


p(2)


p(2) = (2)2 – 2 + 1


p(2) = 4 – 2 + 1


p(2) = 2 + 1


p(2) = 3


p(1)


p(1) = (1)2 – 1 + 1


p(1) = 1 – 1 + 1


p(1) = 1


p(0)


p(0) = (0)2 – 0 + 1


p(0) = 1
