65) Zeros are 2 and ≈±2.236 • B) x= 2 c) f(x)=(x-2)(x-√5)(x+√5) • 78) f(x)= (x-2)x²+5 = x³-2x²+5 • B) = -(x+3)x²+1 = -x³-3x²+1 • 93) f(x) = x³-7x²+12x • 94) f(x) = x²+5x-6 • 95) f(x)= x³ + x² - 7x -3 • 96) f(x) = x^4 -3x³-5x²+9x-2
Zeros of Polynomial Functions • a) The first degree polynomial f(x)= x-2 has exactly one zero x=2 • b) counting multiplicity, the second-degree polynomial function f(x)=x²-6x+9=(x-3)(x-3) has exactly two zeros: x=3 and x=3.this is called a repeated zero)
d)The fourth-degree polynomial function • f(x)= x^4-1=(x-1)(x+1)(x-i)(x+i) • Has exactly four zeros: x=1, x=-1, x=i, x=-i c) The third-degree polynomial function f(x)=x³+4x=x(x²+4)=x(x-2i)(x+2i) Has exactly three zeros: x=0, x=2i, and x=-2i
The Rational Zero Test • Rational zero = p/q • Where p and q have no common factors other than 1, and • p = a factor of the constant term • q= a factor of the leading coefficient • Possible rational zeros= • Factors of constant term/factors of leading coefficient.
Rational Zero Test with leading coefficient of 1 • Find the rational zeros of: • the factors of 1 are 1 and -1, use synthetic division
Try this • Find all rational zeros of the function:
1st list all of the factors ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6 • Try one factor using synthetic division if it does not work try another.
With so many possibilities(32 in fact), it is worth your time to stop and graph the polynomial equation. This will shorten your list of possible zeros. Use synthetic division to term the final roots. Answer is x=2
Try this • Find all real solutions of the polynomial equation
List all possible factors of 6 and 2 • ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6 divide by ±1, ±2 • Use synthetic divisions to find factors.
Answer • -6, 1, ½
