Question 867470: For f(x)= x^4–3x^2 − 8, use the Intermediate Value Theorem to determine which interval must contain a zero of f. Show work
A. Between 0 and 1
B. Between 1 and 2
C. Between 2 and 3
D. Between 3 and 4
Evaluate the function for each pair of values. If you get function values that have opposite signs for any pair of values then a zero must exist in the interval between the two given values.
