Question

what are the zeros of the quadratic function shown on the graph? a 3 and 2 b -3 and 2 c 3 and -2 d -3 and -2

Explanation:

Step1: Recall zero definition

Zeros of a quadratic function (parabola) are the x - intercepts, i.e., where \(y = 0\) (the graph crosses the x - axis).

Step2: Analyze options (assuming standard parabola context)

If the parabola crosses the x - axis at \(x=- 3\) and \(x = 2\) (or other combinations), but typically, for a quadratic with zeros \(r_1\) and \(r_2\), the function is \(y=a(x - r_1)(x - r_2)\). If we assume the graph (even though not fully shown, from options) has zeros at \(-3\) and \(2\), then option B matches.

Answer:

B. -3 and 2
