Answer:

(-2.95,0)

x = -2.95 is the zero of the function.                                                      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

f(x) = 1.5x + 3(x-3) + 5.5(x+7)

We have to find the zero of the function.

Zero of function:

  • It is the value where the function have a value zero.
  • (a,0)  such that f(a) = 0

We can find zero of the function in the following manner:

f(x) = 1.5x + 3(x-3) + 5.5(x+7) = 0\\1.5x + 3x -9 + 5.5x + 38.5 = 0\\(1.5x + 3x + 5.5x) + (38.5-9) = 0\\10x + 29.5 = 0\\10x = -29.5\\x = -2.95            

Thus, x = -2.95 is the zero of the function.

Factor the denominator:

(3x-1)(x+2)

every time x=-2 (because of (x+2), it would cause a warp in the graph, and not have an input. that is the vertical asymptote.

since you have factor 3x-1 on top and bottom, in which the zero is 1/3, there would be no solution at x=1/3. it would be a hole.

the answer here is C.
