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 $p(x)$.
(2) 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 two distinct points.
Therefore,the number of zeroes of the polynomial $p(x)$ is $2$.
