Q. Find the zeros of the function. Enter the solutions from least to greatest.\newlinef(x)=(x+2)216 f(x)=(x+2)^{2}-16 \newlinelesser x= x= \newlinegreater x= x=
  1. Find Zeros of the Function: Set the function equal to zero to find its zeros.\newlinef(x)=(x+2)216=0f(x) = (x+2)^2 - 16 = 0
  2. Solve the Equation: Solve the equation (x+2)216=0(x+2)^2 - 16 = 0 by moving 1616 to the other side of the equation.\newline(x+2)2=16(x+2)^2 = 16
  3. Take the Square Root: Take the square root of both sides of the equation to solve for x.\newline(x+2)2=±16\sqrt{(x+2)^2} = \pm\sqrt{16}\newlinex+2=±4x + 2 = \pm4
  4. Solve for x: Solve for x by subtracting 22 from both sides of the equation for both the positive and negative cases.\newlineFor the positive case:\newlinex+2=4x + 2 = 4\newlinex=42x = 4 - 2\newlinex=2x = 2\newlineFor the negative case:\newlinex+2=4x + 2 = -4\newlinex=42x = -4 - 2\newlinex=6x = -6
