Charles Yang · Answer 1

the zeros and the x-intercepts are the same with different names

x - intercepts are ( - 7, 0) and (2, 0)

if x = a is a zero then (x - a) is a factor

thus (x + 7) and (x - 2) are the factors

Ahmed Rosario · Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

They have given us the zeros, which tells us the x-intercepts and factors

The x intercepts are at (2,0) and (-7,0)

The factors are (x-2) (x+7)
