Root (mathematics)
This article is about the
zeroes of a function, which should not be confused with the
value at zero. You may also want information on the
Nth roots of numbers instead. In
mathematics, a root (or a zero) of a complex-valued
function is a member of the
domain of such that vanishes at , that is, In other words, a "root" of a function is a value for that produces a result of zero ("0"). For example, consider the function defined by the following formula: This function has a root at 3 because 0.If the function is mapping from
real numbers to real numbers, its zeros are the points where its graph meets the
x-axis. In this situation, a root can be called an x-intercept.
