Answer: 0, 4, -9

Set the equation equal to zero.

x(x - 4)(x + 9) = 0

Solve for x by setting each factor equal to zero.

The factors in the equation are x, (x - 4), and (x + 9).

x = 0

(x - 4) = 0

x = 4

(x + 9) = 0

x = -9

The zeros of the function are 0, 4, and -9.

13. Find the vertex of f(x)=x2 -6x +8 .

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

a (3,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that "completes the square" is the square of half the x-coefficient, (-6/2)^2 = 9. Rearranging the given function to include the square trinomial, we have ...

f(x) = x^2 -6x +9 -1 . . . . . . . here, we have 8 = 9 - 1

f(x) = (x -3)^2 -1 . . . . . . . . . . vertex form

Comparing this to the generic vertex form ...

f(x) = (x -h)^2 +k . . . . . . . vertex at (h, k)

we see that h=3 and k=-1.

The vertex is (h, k) = (3, -1).
