A polynomial has been factored, as shown below: f(x) = (x - 9)(x + 12)(x - 24)
What are the zeros of the polynomial?
1)-9,9, -12, 12, -24, 24
2) -9, 12, -24
3) 9.-12, 24
4) 9, 12, 24

To find the zeros of a polynomial, you make every factored parentheses equal to zero. You basically make the other side equal to zero and solve for x.

So,

Your zeros are x = 9, -12, 24

So your answer is 3) 9, -12, 24

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

265 words per minute

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

    200 words per minute

felicia:

260 words per minute

200< 260 < 265
