Question

What are the zeros of the function shown in the graph?

Answer 1

the zeros are -3,-1, and 1

Explanation:

zeros are nothing more that where the function crosses or touches the x-axis

Answer 2

Answer: Third Option

-3, -1, 1

Explanation:

By definition, the zeros of a function f(x) are all the values x for which f(x) = 0.

In other words, the zeros of a function f(x) are the intersections of the graph of f(x) with the axis of x.

Therefore, to identify the zeros of the function shown, identify the values of x in which the graph intersects the horizontal axis.

You can see in the graph that these intersections occur in

`x = -3\\x = -1\\x = 1`

Finally the zeros are: -3, -1, 1
