What are the zeros of the parabola whose equation is y = x2 + 8x + 15
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(1) -5 and -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Descarte's rule of signs tells you the lack of sign changes among the coefficients means there are <em>no positive real roots</em>. That eliminates all answer choices except the first one.

If you want to go to the trouble, you can factor the equation:
y = (x +3)(x +5)
These factors are zero when x = -5 and x = -3.
