\[ƒ(x) = x^4 - 7x^2 + 6x\]
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
to find the zeros of it, set it equal zero and solve for x.
\[0=x^4-7x^2+6x\]factor out of x\[0=x(x^3-7x^2+6)\]
so one of the zeros of the function is\[0\]
now,\[0=x^3-7x^2+6--->x^3-7x^2=-6-->(x^2-7x)x=-6\]
so another zero of the function is\[-6\]
now you have left\[x^2-7x=-6.-->x^2-7x+6=0--->(x-6)(x-1)=0\]
so the remaining two zeros of the function are \[6 & 1\]
so you have the zeros of the function, they are,
\[0,-6,6,1\]

Am I right?
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
idk what exactly do you mean by solve.
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
I found the zeros of the function.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think this is wrong

Yeah, i am not sure..... I tagged but no one is coming, I want to see how to do this too.
OpenStudy (dan815):
solve what?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Dan815 not yet
OpenStudy (solomonzelman):
@skullpatrol, @dan815 Did I find the zeros of the function correctly?
OpenStudy (dan815):
no they are off
