find the zeros of the function f(x)=9x^3-45x^2+36x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0 = 9x^3 - 45x^2 + 36x...Step one. Now factor the equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9x(x^2-5x+4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes now we have (9x) (x^2-5x+4) = 0 Can we factor further?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(9x)(x-4)(x-5)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i meant (x-1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(9x)(x-4)(x-1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x cannot equal 0, 4, and 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow that is great work... But do not say it cannot equal x. When solving for zeros we want to know what values for x will give us a value of 0 for y.

thank you!
