Question

The polynomial f(x) is written in factored form:

f(x) = (x - 9)(x + 12)(x - 24)
What are the zeros of the polynomial function?
Ox=-9, x = 9, x = -12, x = 12, x = -24, x = 24
O x = -9, x = 12, x= -24
x = 9, x= -12, x = 24
x = 9, x= 12, x = 24

Answer 1

Answer: x = 9, x = −12, x = 24

Answer 2

{-12, 9, 24}

Explanation:

Set the given f(x) = (x - 9)(x + 12)(x - 24) = to 0. Then, one by one, set each factor = to 0 and solve for x: We get the zeros {-12, 9, 24}
