Question

Find the zeros of the function. y=(x+2)(x-5)(x-6)The zero(s) of the function are ____.

Answer 1

The zeros of the function are all values of X that make y or f(x) be 0.

So we have to equal each factor to 0 to find the value.

Then,

x+2 = 0, x=-2

x - 5 = 0, x=5

x-6=0, x=6

Then the zeros are: - 2, 5 and 6
