Will give brainlist and 5 star! and a like The temperature in Marshfield at 6:00 p. m. was 5 degrees Fahrenheit. By 11:00 p. m., the temperature had dropped
9 degrees.
Enter the temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit, at 11:00 p. m.

i'm sorry mate, but i am not seeing any figures. i am unable to solve this for you.

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
