Pg 325 #42-47 Determine whether each binomial is a factor of Reminds me of a “bank” Limits the ones I have to check! Of course a graph helps too!!!
If “it” goes in evenly, it’s a FACTOR We know the remainder is 0
Ultimate Goal • To solve polynomials • To graph polynomials • If we can get the polynomial in factored form, then life is pretty easy!
Tool to help find factors • Long Division • Always works • Synthetic Division • Works with linear factors • Especially when written in the form (x-a)
Tool to help find factors • We need a BANK to limit the choices • RATIONAL ROOT THEOREM • If your polynomial is in standard form and • If your polynomial has integer coefficients • Then the bank consists of • The possible rational roots are found in the bank
Example • List the possible rational roots for
BOGO, new perspective • Irrational Root Theorem • If the is a root, then is also a root • If is a root, then is also a root • Imaginary Root Theorem • If is a root, then is also a root • They are called conjugates of each other!
Examples • Given the polynomial, find the other roots
Intermission • Stand up and stretch for 1 minute • Then use your calc to answer pg 318 #49
