Q. Find the zeros of the function. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.f(x)=(x+8)2−1lesser x=greater x=
Find zeros of the function: Set the function equal to zero to find its zeros. f(x)=(x+8)2−1=0
Isolate the squared term: Add 1 to both sides of the equation to isolate the squared term.(x+8)2−1+1=0+1(x+8)2=1
Take the square root: Take the square root of both sides of the equation to solve for x.(x+8)2=±1x+8=±1
Solve for x (positive case): Solve for x by subtracting 8 from both sides of the equation for both positive and negative cases.For the positive case:x+8−8=1−8x=−7For the negative case:x+8−8=−1−8x=−9
