The zeros of the polynomial $7 x^{2}-\frac{11}{3} x-\frac{2}{3}$ are (a) $\frac{2}{3}, \frac{-1}{7}$ (a) $\frac{2}{7}, \frac{-1}{3}$ (c) $\frac{-2}{3}, \frac{1}{7}$ (d) none of these

The correct option is option (a) $\frac{2}{3}, \frac{-1}{7}$

$f(x)=7 x^{2}-\frac{11}{3} x-\frac{2}{3}=0$

$\Rightarrow 21 \mathrm{x}^{2}-11 \mathrm{x}-2=0$

$\Rightarrow 21 \mathrm{x}^{2}-14 \mathrm{x}+3 \mathrm{x}-2=0$

$\Rightarrow 7 x(3 x-2)+1(3 x-2)=0$

$\Rightarrow(3 x-2)(7 x+1)=0$

$\Rightarrow \mathrm{x}=\frac{2}{3}$ or $\mathrm{x}=\frac{-1}{7}$
