First factor out that x
f(x)=x(x^2-2x-8)
what 2 numbers multiply to get -8 and add to get -2?
-4 and 2
f(x)=(x-0)(x-4)(x+2)
set to zero
x-0=0
x=0

x-4=0
x=4

x+2=0
x=-2

the zeroes are at x=-2,0 and 4

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

sides =8 cm, 17 cm and 15 cm

Area of triangle by Hero's Formula,

S=a+b+c/2

S=17+8+15/2

S=40/2

S=20

A= $\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

A= $\sqrt{20(20-17)(20-8)(20-15)}$

A= $\sqrt{(20)(3)(12)(5)}$

A= $\sqrt{3600}$

A=60 $cm^{2}$
