The function y = –4(x – 3)2 + 8 shows the daily profit (in hundreds of dollars) of a taco food truck, where x is the price of a taco (in dollars). Find and interpret the zeros of this function.

Select two answers: one for the zeros and one for the interpretation.

A. Zeros: x = 3 and x = –3
B. Zeros: x = 3 – ≈ 1.58 and x = 3 + ≈ 4.41
C. Interpretation: The zeros are where the price of a taco is $0.00.
D. Interpretation: The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00.
