How are solution and x-intercept and zero of a function and and root related?

solutions are the well solution to the problem. X-intercepts are wherever a graph cross the x axis, which are hte solutions when you have to find out what x is, zeros are pretty much the same thing although i think that include y-intercepts as well..... not sure. and roots are the same thing as x-intercepts. so they are all more or less the same thing


What relationship exists between the zeros of the graph and the factored form of a quadratic equation?

The graph will have a formula such as y=x2+3x+2 This can be factorised in this example to y=(x+1)(x+2). The zeroes of the graph are really the points which satisfy the simultaneous equations y=0 (a line) and y=(x+1)(x+2). Both of these are equal to y, so put them equal to each other: (x+1)(x+2)=0 This has only one variable, x, so we can find its values. It is clear that if either x+1=0 or x+2=0 the whole expression will be equal to zero, as the bit that is zero will multiply the other bit by zero, so the whole thing is zero. Solve each of those two individually to get x=-1 and x=-2. These are the zeroes of the graph. Read it carefully. Many high school mathematics students were bored to bring you this information (I was bored at this stage but found it got much more interesting later).

Can you solve this using quadratic formula three x squared plus twelve x minus forty-eight?

If you are looking for the zeros of this function: x = -2 plus or minus 2 X the square root of 5.

What do the zeros of a polynomial function represent on a graph?

The zeros of a polynomial represent the points at which the graph crosses (or touches) the x-axis.


When does a graph have 2 zeros?

How can you use a graph to find zeros of a quadratic function?

The zeros of a quadratic function, if they exist, are the values of the variable at which the graph crosses the horizontal axis.


How do you graph a polynomial in order to solve for the Zeros?

Either graph the polynomial on graph paper manually or on a graphing calculator. If it is a "y=" polynomial, then the zeroes are the points or point where the polynomial touches the x-axis. If it is an "x=" polynomial, then the zeroes are the points or point where the polynomial touches the y-axis. If it touches neither, then it has no zeroes.


How do you find the zeros in an equation by looking on a graph?

They are all the points where the graph crosses (or touches) the x-axis.


What are integral zeros?

The integral zeros of a function are integers for which the value of the function is zero, or where the graph of the function crosses the horizontal axis.


How you can use the zeros of the numerator and the zeros of the denominator of a rational function to determine whether the graph lies below or above the x-axis in a specific interval?

Discuss how you can use the zeros of the numerator and the zeros of the denominator of a rational function to determine whether the graph lies below or above the x-axis in a specified interval?


How do you graph quadratics by finding zeros?

You cannot graph quadratics by finding its zeros: you need a lot more points.Some quadratics will have no zeros. Having the zeros does not tell you whether the quadratic is open at the top (cup or smiley face) or open at the bottom (cap or grumpy face). Furthermore, it gives no indication as to how far above, or below, the apex is.


How do you find complex zeros on a graph?

It's actually quite hard to graph complex numbers - you would need a four-dimensional space to graph them adequately. I believe it's more convenient to find zeros analytically for such functions.

What are the importance of zeros on a graph in physical science?

Zeros on a graph in physical science represent points where a quantity being measured is equal to zero. They can indicate important values such as equilibrium points, boundaries, or critical thresholds. Zeros can help to identify key features of a system and provide insights into its behavior and properties.
