Given:

The quadratic function is:


f(x)=x^2+3x-4

To find:

The zeros of the given quadratic function.

Solution:

We have,


f(x)=x^2+3x-4

Splitting the middle term, we get


f(x)=x^2+4x-x-4


f(x)=x(x+4)-1(x+4)


f(x)=(x+4)(x-1)

For zeros,
f(x)=0.


(x+4)(x-1)=0


x=-4,1

Therefore, the correct option is (b).
