The Zero of a Linear Function

This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.

State

The zero of a linear function is the input where the output is 0, found by solving f(x) = 0; a nonconstant linear function has exactly one.

Show

A profit model P(x) = 3x − 6 zeroes at x = 2 — the break-even point, where losses hand off to gains.

Builds on

  • Nothing — this is a starting point.

Unlocks

  • Nothing yet depends on this.
