f(x) = (x – 4)(x + 4)?



(0,0)


(0,4)


(–4,0)


(2,0)

What is the midpoint of the x-intercepts of f(x) = (x 4)(x + 4)? (0,0) (0,4) ( 4,0) (2,0) class=

Verified Answer :

I think its c bc -4 and 4 is in the midpoint and -4 =0


Answer:

\((0,0)\)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is,

\(f(x)=(x-4)(x+4)\)

x-intercepts are the points where the graph meets x axis or the value of the function f(x) becomes 0.

So the x intercepts will be,

\(\Rightarrow f(x)=0\)

\(\Rightarrow (x-4)(x+4)=0\)

\(\Rightarrow x-4=0,x+4=0\)

\(\Rightarrow x=4,-4\)

So the x intercepts will be,

\((-4,0),(4,0)\)

Mid point of these two points will be,

\(=\left(\dfrac{-4+4}{2},\dfrac{0+0}{2}\right)=(0,0)\)
