Question

Factoring, Please help!


Find the zeros of the function f(x) = x2- 7x + 6 by factoring. What is the largest zero of the function? Enter a number only.

Answer 1

\[x^2-7x+6\]
Factor
\[(x-6)(x-1)\]
Set both equal to 0
X-6=0
x-1=0

Solve for x

x=6
x=1

Answer 2

So when it says the larger zero, does that mean it would be 6?

Answer 3

Yes
