Answer:

The function f(x) has 14 zeros.

Explanation:

We know that by Fundamental Theorem of Algebra :

Any polynomial equation of degree n with complex coefficient has exactly 'n' complex roots counting multiplicity.

Here we are given a polynomial function f(x) as:


f(x)=2x^(14)-14x^6+27x^3-13x+12

So, this polynomial function is of degree 14.

Hence, the given polynomial function f(x) has exactly 14 zeros.
