Use factoring to find the zeros of the quadratic function. List the x-intercepts of the graph of the function.
-$$F ( x ) = x ^ { 2 } - x - 12$$
A) $x = 1 , x = 12$
B) $x = - 3 , x = - 4$
C) $x = - 3 , x = 4$
D) $x = 3 , x = 4$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The quadratic equation $x^2 - x - 12$ can be factored into $(x - 4)(x + 3) = 0$, giving the solutions $x = 4$ and $x = -3$.
