What do zeros represent in a quadratic equation graph

Monica build a remote control toy airplane for science project to test the plane she launched it from the top of a building the plane travel a horizontal distance of 50 feet before landing on the ground a quadratic function which models the height of the plane in feet relative to the ground at a horizontal distance of x feet from the building is shown

Suppose you are an avid reader and are looking to save money on the cost of books instead of paying about $20 for each book, you decide to look into purchasing a kindle for $120 you can purchase e-books for about $5 each 1. find the slope-intercept equation for the cost of the hard copy of books using x to represent the number of books 2. find the slope-intercept equation for the cost of the kindle with cost of e-books using x to represent the number of books

Solve each quadratic equation by factoring and using the zero product property. 14x - 49 = x^2
