The function y=-4(x - 3)2 + 8 shows the daily profit (in hundreds of dollars)
of a taco food truck, where x is the price of a taco (in dollars). Find and
interpret the zeros of this function,
Select two answers: one for the zeros and one for the interpretation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros, set y=-4(x - 3)2 + 8 = 0.  Then -4(x - 3)^2 = -8, and:

4(x - 3)^2 = 8.  Dividing both sides by 4 yields (x - 3)^2 = 2.

Taking the square root of both sides yields x - 3 = ±2, so that

x = 3 ±2, or x = 5 and x = 1.  These are the zeros. The correct interpretatioon is A:  where the daily profit is $0.

Answer:

Interpretation: The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00.

Zeroes are x = 1.58 and x = 4.41.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function,

[tex]y=-4(x-3)^2+8[/tex]

For finding the zeros,

y = 0,

[tex]-4(x-3)^2+8=0[/tex]

[tex]-4(x-3)^2=-8[/tex]

[tex](x-3)^2=2[/tex]

[tex]x-3=\pm \sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x = 3\pm \sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x\approx 4.41\text{ or }x=1.58[/tex]

Hence, the zeroes of the function are x = 1.58 and x = 4.41,

∵ x represents the price of a taco and y represents daily profit,

Therefore, the zeroes are where the daily profit is $ 0.00.
