Look at the graph given below. It is the graph of $y=p(x)$ where $p(x)$ is a polynomial. Find the number of zeroes of $p(x)$.
(N/A) The number of zeroes of a polynomial $p(x)$ is equal to the number of points where the graph of $y=p(x)$ intersects the $X$-axis.
In the given graph,the curve intersects the $X$-axis at $3$ distinct points.
Therefore,the number of zeroes of the polynomial $p(x)$ is $3$.
In the given graph,the curve intersects the $X$-axis at $3$ distinct points.
