Answer:

The zeros of the given function are -9,-1 and 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=x^3-2x^2-111x-108

It is given that the x-intercept of the graph is -9, therefore -9 is a zero of the function.

Since -9 is the zero of the function, therefore (x+9) is a factor of f(x). Use synthetics method or long division method to divide the function by (x+9).

f(x)=(x+9)(x^2-11x-12)=0

f(x)=(x+9)(x^2-12x+x-12)=0

f(x)=(x+9)(x(x-12)+(x-12))=0

f(x)=(x+9)(x-12)(x+1)=0

Use zero product property and quote each factor equal to 0.

x=-9,-1,12

Therefore zeros of the given function are -9,-1 and 12.

Carlos is using the quadratic formula to find the solutions of y=3x^2-5x-2. Which of the following will simplify to the correct
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

Fx=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{25+24} }{6}

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation in one variable given by the general expression:

ax^2+bx+c

Where:

a\neq 0

The roots of this equation can be found using the quadratic formula, which is given by:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

So:

y(x)=3x^2-5x-2=0

As you can see, in this case:

a=3\\b=-5\\c=-2

Using the quadratic formula:

x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}=\frac{-(-5)\pm\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(3)(-2)} }{2(3)}=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{25+24} }{6}

Therefore, the answer is:

Fx=\frac{5\pm\sqrt{25+24} }{6}
