What are the zeros of the following quadratic function? Graph: http://prntscr.com/cjgzb6 A. {-4, 0} B. {5, 1} C. {-4, 2} D. {2, 4}

OpenStudy (welshfella):

the zeroes are the points on the x axis where the graph intersects.

OpenStudy (will.h):

to find the zeros use the famous quadratic formula \[\frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{ 2a }\]

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

The points where the graph cuts the x axis

OpenStudy (welshfella):

they are called the zeroes because this is where the function has a value of zero.

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

More precisely the x coordinate of the points where graph cuts the x axis

OpenStudy (quz34):

ok in that case would my answer be {-4,2}?

OpenStudy (jiteshmeghwal9):

Right

OpenStudy (welshfella):

yes

OpenStudy (will.h):

no clue bc i haven't looked at it anyway lol
