Finding Zeros of a Quadratic Function by Factoring

This video tutorial teaches how to find the zeros of quadratic functions by factoring. It explains the process of rewriting functions in factored form and setting them to zero to find the input values that make the function equal to zero. The tutorial also covers common mistakes in factoring and how to verify zeros using graphs.
