Answer:

(v) Can the quadratic polynomial has equal zeroes for some odd integer ?

Answer: No

(i) If the zeroes of a quadratic polynomial are both positive, then a, b and c all have the same sign.

Answer: False

(ii) If the graph of a polynomial intersects the x-axis at only one point, it cannot be a quadratic polynomial.

Answer: False

(iii) If the graph of a polynomial intersects the x-axis at exactly two points, it need not be a quadratic polynomial.

Answer: True

(iv) If two of the zeroes of a cubic polynomial are zero, then it does not have linear and constant terms.

Answer: True

(v) If all the zeroes of a cubic polynomial are negative, then all the coefficients and the constant term of the polynomial have the same sign.

Answer: True
