Question

A polynomial has been factored, as shown below:

f(x) = (x − 9)(x + 12)(x − 24)

What are the zeros of the polynomial?

−9, 9, −12, 12, −24, 24
−9, 12, −24
9, −12, 24
9, 12, 24

Answer 1

9, -12, 24

The zeroes are the numbers in the parentheses with the opposite signs (-9 becomes 9, 12 becomes -12, and -24 becomes 24)

Answer 2

The zeros of the polynomial are 9, −12, 24.

option (c) is correct.

It is given that the  polynomial is

f(x) = (x − 9)(x + 12)(x − 24)

To find  the zeros of the polynomial.

What of polynomial?

A mathematical expression of one or more algebraic terms each of which consists of a constant multiplied by one or more variables raised to a nonnegative integral power.

The given polynomial is

f(x) = (x − 9)(x + 12)(x − 24)

If f(x) =0

0 = (x − 9)(x + 12)(x − 24)

then

x-9=0 or x+12=0 or x-24=0

x=9 or x=-12 or x=24

so ,  the zeros of the polynomial are 9, −12, 24.
