Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The function will be zero when the numerator is equal to 0. So, set the numerator equal to 0 and solve:

[tex]0 = 4 {x}^{2} - 36x[/tex]

I will use the quadratic formula:

[tex] \frac{ 36 + \sqrt{ {36}^{2} - 4(4)(0)} }{2(4)} \\ \frac{ 36 + 36}{8} = 9[/tex]

Therefore, x = 9 is a 0. Let's check with subtracted root now:

[tex] \frac{ 36 - \sqrt{ {36}^{2} - 4(4)(0)} }{2(4)} \\ \frac{ 36 - 36}{8} = 0[/tex]

It appears 0 is also a root.

Therefore, the answer is D.
