Question

the following quadratic function. find the zeros

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -4, x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the zeros, set f(x) = 0, hence

x² - 2x - 24 = 0 ( factoring the quadratic )

(x - 6)(x + 4) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
