Q. A polynomial function f is defined as f(x)=3(x−4)(2x−1). What is the product of all of the zeros of function f ?
Identify Zeros: Identify the zeros of the polynomial function.The zeros of the polynomial function f(x) are the values of x that make the function equal to zero. To find these, we set each factor in the function equal to zero.(x−4)=0 and (2x−1)=0
Solve Equations: Solve for x in each equation.For the first equation:x−4=0x=4For the second equation:2x−1=02x=1x=21We have found the zeros: x=4 and x=21.
Calculate Product: Calculate the product of the zeros.The product of the zeros is found by multiplying them together.Product = 4×(21)
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication to find the product.Product = 4×(21)=2
