Question

What are the zeros of f(x) = (x − 5)(x − 4)(x − 2)?

Answer 1

Answer:

x=5 , x=4, x=2

i got this answer by setting the x-5=0 then solve for x. same for each x-5, x-4, x-2.

Answer 2

Answer:

The zeros are 2,4 and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

$f(x) = (x-5)(x-4)(x-2)$

To find the zeros equate the function equal to 0.

$(x-5)(x-4)(x-2)=0$

The zeros are:

$(x-5)=0$ or $(x-4)=0$ or $(x-2)=0$

$=5$ or $x=4$ or $x=2$

Hence the zeros are 2,4 and 5.
