Which best describes a root of a polynomial?

A "root" of a polynomial is any value which, when replaced for the variable, results in the polynomial evaluating to zero. For example, in the polynomial x2 - 9, if you replace "x" by 3, or by -3, the resulting expression is equal to zero.


What type of research describes the strenghth and direction of relationships between two variables?
