The function is:
f ( x ) = x² - x - 72
This is a quatdratic function. So we can find the zeroes of the function with the formula:
x 1/2 = ( - b +/- √(b² - 4 ac) ) / ( 2a )
And we have: a = 1, b = - 1 and c = - 72
x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- √((-1)² - 4 · 1· ( - 72 )) ) / 2
x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- √( 1 + 288 ) ) / 2
x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- √289 ) / 2
x 1/2 = ( 1 +/- 17 ) / 2
x 1 = ( 1 - 17 ) 2 = - 16 / 2 = - 8
x 2 = ( 1 + 17 ) / 2 = 18 / 2 = 9
Answer: The zeroes are - 8 and 9.

Raising a whole number to a power means:
Take (a number of things) a number of times, and then possibly
take that big number of things a number of times again.
Raising a fraction to an exponent means:
Take a piece of (a piece of one thing), and then possibly
take just a piece of that smaller piece.
