If the zero of (p(x)=ax+b) is (7) and (a=-4), what is (b)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 28

Since 7 is a zero, p(7)=0. Therefore, 7a+b=0. Substituting a=-4 gives 7(-4)+b=0, or -28+b=0. Hence, b=28. The close distractor -28 is the value of 7a, not of b. Exam tip: if r is a zero of the linear polynomial ax+b, use ar+b=0 to find an unknown coefficient.
