To find the zeros of this function, we must first set the entire function equal to 0
f(x) = x² - 2x - 15 = 0
Since this is a quadratic function, we must use the quadratic formula, which is:
Let's assign a, b, and c using our first function
x² means a = 1 (because it could be written as 1x²)
-2x means b = -2
-15 means c = -15
Now let's plug those in:
which simplifies to:
Simplified further:
And divide it by the 2 on the bottom gives us:
2+4 = 6
2-4 = -2
So the zeros of this function are -2 and 6
f(x) = x² - 2x - 15 = 0

Circle formula
(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where (h,k) is the center
and r=radius
to find the radius
we are given one of the points and the center
distnace from them is the radius
distance formula
D=
points (-3,2) and (1,5)
D=
D=
D=
D=
D=5
center is -3,2
r=5
input
(x-(-3))^2+(y-2)^2=5^2
(x+3)^2+(y-2)^2=25 is equation
radius =5
input -7 for x and solve for y
(-7+3)^2+(y-2)^2=25
(-4)^2+(y-2)^2=25
16+(y-2)^2=25
minus 16
(y-2)^2=9
sqqrt
y-2=+/-3
add 2
y=2+/-3
y=5 or -1
the point (-7,5) and (7,-1) lie on this circle
radius=5 units
the points (-7,5) and (-7,1) lie on this circle
