To provide a thorough response, I would need the specific function you are asking about. The zero of a function generally refers to the value of x for which the function's output y (or f(x)) is equal to 0. This is the x-intercept of the function when graphed on a Cartesian plane.

For example, if the function is f(x) = x + 1, to find the zero, we would set the function equal to zero and solve for x:

f(x) = x + 1 = 0 x + 1 = 0 x = -1

In this case, the zero of the function is x = -1.

However, without the actual function, I cannot determine which of the provided options (A, B, C, or D) is the correct zero of the function. If you can provide the specific function, I can then help you find the zero.
