Math Problem Statement

The remaining zero is found by solving 7x - 3 = 0. Therefore, the zeros of f(x) are 8 - i, 8 + i, and ?

Solution

Let's analyze the problem shown in the image:

The given equation to solve is 7x3=07x - 3 = 0.

Solution:

  1. Solve for xx by isolating it: 7x=37x = 3 x=37x = \frac{3}{7}

Thus, the third zero of the function is 37\frac{3}{7}.

Final Answer:

The zeros of the function are: 8i,8+i,378 - i, \quad 8 + i, \quad \frac{3}{7}
