What are the zeros for the function

Mathematics

Greeley [361]3 years ago
7 0

The zeroes of the function are x = -3, \ \ x =2\sqrt{ 3}i,  \ \ x =-2\sqrt{ 3}i.

Solution:

Given function:

f(x)=x^{3}+3 x^{2}+12 x+36

<u>To find the zeros of the function:</u>

⇒ f(x) = 0

\Rightarrow x^{3}+3 x^{2}+12 x+36=0

\Rightarrow (x^{3}+3 x^{2})+(12 x+36)=0

Take x² as common in first bracket and take 12 as common in 2nd bracket.

\Rightarrow x^2(x+3 )+12( x+3)=0

Now, take common term (x + 3) outside.

\Rightarrow (x+3 ) (x^2+12)=0

<em>Using zero factor principle, If ab = 0 then a = 0 or b = 0.</em>

x+3=0,  \ \ x^2+12=0

x = –3

x^2+12=0

x² = –12

x² = 2² × 3 × –1

Taking square root on both sides, we get

\sqrt{x^2} =\pm\sqrt{2^2\times 3\times -1}

x =\pm2\sqrt{ 3\times -1}

we know that \sqrt{-1} =i.

x =\pm2\sqrt{ 3}i

x =2\sqrt{ 3}i,  \ \ x =-2\sqrt{ 3}i

Hence the zeroes of the function are x = -3, \ \ x =2\sqrt{ 3}i,  \ \ x =-2\sqrt{ 3}i.
