Use the Rational Zero Theorem to list all possible rational
Use the Rational Zero Theorem to list all possible rational zeros for the given function f(x) -x4+7x3-5x2+2x 12 2 34612 B)±D, ± 1, ± 12 C)-, t-, ± D) ±1, ± 2, ± 3, ± 4, ± 6, ± 12 12 1, ± 2, ± 3, ± 4, ±6212 QUESTION4 Solve the polynomial inequality. Express the solution set in interval notation. B) I-2,4] D) I-4,2
Solution
given f(x)=1x4+7x3-5x2+2x-12
factors of leading coefficient(coefficient of x4) are ±1
factors of constant(i.e, -12) are ±1,±2,±3,±4,±6,±12
so the possible rational zeroes are (±1,±2,±3,±4,±6,±12)/±1
so the possible rational zeroes are ±1,±2,±3,±4,±6,±12
============================================================
question 4:
x2-2x 8
=>x2-2x-80
=>(x+2)(x-4)0
=>x+20 ,x-40
=>x-2, x4
x[-2,4]
please rate if helpful. please comment if you have any doubt
