Answer to Problem 61RE
Factor
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Function:
Factor:
Calculation:
Verifying whether
Step 1: Writing coefficients of polynomial function on the right side and value of constant of factor with opposite sign on the left side.
Step 2: Now, adding terms in columns and multiplying the results by -2.
Here, the remainder is zero, it means that
Verifying whether
Step 1: Writing coefficients of polynomial function on the right side and value of constant of factor with opposite sign on the left side.

To find the zeros, put
Calculation for graph:
Consider
Values of x | Values of f ( x ) |
0 | 24 |
1 | 36 |
-1 | 0 |
2 | 24 |
-2 | 0 |
By taking different values of x , the graph can be plotted.
Graph:
Interpretation:
By observing graph, it is clear that the curve of the function meets x -axis at
Hence, the zeros of the function are
