Question

Determine between which consecutive integers the real zeros of each function are located. f(x)= 2x^2 - 5x + 1

Answer 1

f(0) = 1
f(1) = 2 - 5 + 1 = -2 [There is a Real Zero between 0 and 1]
f(2) = 8 - 10 + 1 = -1
f(3) = 18 - 15 + 1 = 4 [There is a Real Zero between 2 and 3]

Really, that's all it takes.

Answer 2

Okay thanks! I was totally making that harder than it is.
