If the zeros of a quadratic function are 3 and 8, what are the factors of the function? O A. (x+8) and (x - 3)

OB. (x - 8) and (x+3)

O C. (x+8) and (x + 3)

D. (x-8) and (x - 3)

Option D

If the zeros of a quadratic function are 3 and 8 then the factors of function are x - 8 and x - 3

Solution:

Given that zeros of quadratic functions are 3 and 8.

Need to determine the factors of quadratic function

Lets function be f (x) that is variable is x.

Zeros of quadratic functions are 3 and 4 means,

x = 3, x = 8 are solutions of f (x)

When x = 3, (x - 3) = 0

When x = 8, (x - 8) = 0

Hence we can say that (x - 3) and (x - 8) are factors of polynomial f (x). hence correct option is D that (x - 3) and (x - 8)
