What are the zeros of the function y = x2 + 10x – 171, and why?

1 answer:

5 0

To find the zeros, you have to factor the equation.
y=(x+19)(x-9)
This is because 19*-9=-171 and 19-9=10.
Now to make x=0, you have to make the equation
x+19=0
and x-9=0
To solve, isolate x on both equations.
This makes x=-19 and x=9.
