Question

The function g is given in three equivalent forms. Which form most quickly reveals the zeros (or "roots") of the function? Choose 1 answer: A g(x) = (2 – 8)2 – 3 B g(x) = 2 8x + 24 g(x) = } (x – 12) (x – 4) Write one of the zeros.

Answer 1

To obtain the roots of the equation equation must be simplified in factor form. So equation

`g(x)=(1)/(2)(x-12)(x-4)`

reveals zeros or factor of equation most quickly as compare to other forms of equations.

Option C is correct option.

Determine the zeros of the equation.

`\begin{gathered} (1)/(12)(x-12)(x-4)=0 \\ (x-12)(x-4)=0 \\ x=12,4 \end{gathered}`

So zeros of the equation are 12 and 4.
