Question

Find the zeros of the function.

write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution second.
f(x)=(x-3)(2x-8)
smaller x=
larger x=

Answer 1

X=3,4

Explanation:

So zeros/roots is just another name for the solution

Since (x-3)(2x-8)=0

Either (x-3)=0

Or (2x-8)=0

Or both (x-3) and (2x-8) can equal 0

To find the solution equate each bracket to 0:

x-3=0

X=3

2x-8=0

2x=8

X=4

Hope this helps!
