-$$F ( x ) = x ^ { 2 } - 3$$
A) $x = \sqrt { 3 }$
B) $x = - 3 , x = 3$
C) $x = \sqrt { 3 } , x = - \sqrt { 3 }$
D) $x = 3$

To find the zeros of the function $F(x) = x^2 - 3$, set $F(x) = 0$ and solve for $x$: $x^2 - 3 = 0$. Adding 3 to both sides gives $x^2 = 3$. Taking the square root of both sides yields $x = \sqrt{3}$ and $x = -\sqrt{3}$, which are the x-intercepts of the graph.
