Question

The polynomial f(x) is written in factored form: f(x) = (x − 3)(x + 8)(x − 11) What are the zeros of the polynomial function?

x = 3, x = 8, x = 11
x = 3, x = −8, x = 11
x = −3, x = 8, x = −11
x = −3, x = 3, x = −8, x = 8, x = −11, x = 11

Answer 1

x=3 x = -8 x = 11

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

x=3 x = -8 x = 11

Explanation:

f(x) = (x − 3)(x + 8)(x − 11)

Using the zero product property

0 = (x − 3)(x + 8)(x − 11)

0 = x-3 0 = x+8 0 = x-11

x=3 x = -8 x = 11
