Question

Which zero pair could be added to the function f(x)=x2+12x+6

Answer 1

Which zero pair could be added to the function f(x) =x^2+12x+6 so that the function can be written in vertex form?
3, –3
6, –6
9, –9
36, –36

If this is the question then the answer is 36, –36

Answer 2

(36, -36)

Explanation:

To write in vertex form, we need to find the number that should be added and subtracted so the equation will not be changed and will in vertex form.

To find the number, divide 12 by 2 and square it.

12/2 = 6

Square of 6 is 36

So we should add 36 and subtract 36

Therefore, the numbers are (36, -36)

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.
