rewrite f(x) = x^2 + 4x -12 in the form that would most easily you identify
the zeros of the function.
a. f(x) = (x+6)(x - 2)

b. f(x) = (x - 6)(x+2)

c. f(x) = (x+ 2)^2 - 12

d. f(x) = (x + 2)^2 - 16

A.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

To rewrite the equation such that the zeros of the function can be easily identified.

Solution:

In order to find the zeros of the given quadratic function, we will use factorization by splitting up the middle term.

We have:

Splitting into two term such that the sum of the two terms = (middle term) and the product of the two terms is = (product of first and last term)

The terms are   as their sum = and their product =

So, we have:

Factoring in pairs of first two terms and last two terms by factoring out their G.C.F.

Since is a common term, we can factor it out further.

 (Answer)

From the above function, we can identify that the zeros of the function are -6 and 2.
