Respuesta :
we will select each options and find zeros
(a)
[tex] g(x)=x^2-4x-21 [/tex]
for finding x-intercept , we can set g(x)=0
and then we can solve for x
[tex] g(x)=x^2-4x-21=0 [/tex]
now, we can factor it
[tex] (x-7)(x+3)=0 [/tex]
we get
[tex] x=7,x=-3 [/tex]
so, this is TRUE
(b)
[tex] g(x)=(x-3)(x+7) [/tex]
we can set it to 0
and then we can solve for x
[tex] g(x)=(x-3)(x+7)=0 [/tex]
we get
[tex] x=3,x=-7 [/tex]
so, this is FALSE
(c)
[tex] g(x)=3x^2-12x-63 [/tex]
we can set it to 0
and then we can solve for x
[tex] g(x)=3x^2-12x-63 =0[/tex]
[tex] 3(x^2-4x-21) =0[/tex]
[tex] 3(x-7)(x+3) =0[/tex]
[tex] x=-3,x=7[/tex]
so, this is TRUE
(d)
[tex] g(x)=-(x+3)(x-7) [/tex]
now, we can set it to 0
and then we can solve for x
[tex] g(x)=-(x+3)(x-7)=0 [/tex]
[tex] x=-3,x=7 [/tex]
so, this is TRUE
(e)
we have
[tex] g(x)=x^2+4x-21 [/tex]
now, we can set it to 0
and then we can solve for x
[tex] g(x)=x^2+4x-21=0 [/tex]
[tex] (x+7)(x-3)=0 [/tex]
[tex] x=-7,x=3 [/tex]
so, this is FALSE
