To find where the function y = x 2 − 14 x + 24 equals zero, we need to solve the equation
x 2 − 14 x + 24 = 0.
This is a quadratic equation, and we can solve it using the quadratic formula, factoring, or completing the square. In this case, let's try factoring.
Look for two numbers that multiply to 24 and add to -14. The numbers that satisfy this condition are -12 and -2 because:

− 12 × − 2 = 24
− 12 + ( − 2 ) = − 14

So, we can factor the quadratic as:
( x − 12 ) ( x − 2 ) = 0.
To find the values of x where y = 0 , set each factor equal to zero:

x − 12 = 0 which implies x = 12.
x − 2 = 0 which implies x = 2.

Therefore, the function y = x 2 − 14 x + 24 is zero at x = 12 and x = 2 .
For the second equation mentioned, y = x 2 + 16 x + 28 , you would follow a similar process to determine where y = 0 . However, let's focus on solving the first equation as given in the problem statement above. If you have a specific case you need help with from this second equation, feel free to ask!
Both of these are standard questions in High School algebra classes, typically under the topic of solving quadratic equations by factoring.
