You have the following function:

[tex]f(x)=-4x^2+12x-9[/tex]

In order to determine the zeros of the function, use the quadratic formula, given by:

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

where a, b and c are coeeficients of the function f(x). In this case the value of these coefficients are:

a = -4

b = 12

c = -9

By replacing the previous values into the quadratic formula and by simplifying you obtain:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-12\pm\sqrt[]{(12)^2-4(-4)(-9)}}{2(-4)} \\ x=\frac{-12\pm\sqrt[]{144-144}}{-8} \\ x=\frac{-12}{-8}=\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, there is one zero for the given function at x=3/2
