Anyone has any idea? I have no clue what the question is asking

Z-zero...?

or 1

>> No.9210690

it means (x-a) is a root of the polynomial honey

>(X-a)
>root

>> No.9210712

So it's saying (x-a)*x^y, and you make it (a-a)*x^y, so the result is x^y?

a-a = 0, dummy. If it's a factor it's something that the whole expression may be multiplied by, right? Hence, >>9210674

>> No.9210750

>>9210726
it might be 1 as well >>9210680

>> No.9210760

The question is imprecise but it's obvious that they're expecting the answer 0.

was that the thread with the autist OP who tried to define dividing by zero as "G"?

STOP BUMPING THE THREAD

People who are taking real time to think about this have concluded that the question is posed too poorly to answer. The more impulsive ones seem to be leaning towards 0. What else do you want? Type it in and tell us what you get. We're not even here to do your homework in the first place.

you can't factor a 0 out of 0^0
