Guys how do you show that something is the only root of an equation

put its solution into the equation and should equal to zero. for example if the root is (2X+3) then substitute -3/2 into the equation and you should get zero.

But won't that only show that it's A root of the equation. Or would it also show that it's the only one?

just finished the paper, it was quiet easy comparing to last year, I actually don't like it because it will bring the grade threshold very high T_T
