a.
Find the three real zeros of the polynomial function
a.
Answer to Problem 120E
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
Consider the folwing table
From the above table, note that the polynomial function
Hence, the real zeros of polynomial function
b.
Explain the behaviour of the graph of
b.
Answer to Problem 120E
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
The graph of the polynomial is negative in the intervals
c.
Find the least possible degree of
c.
Answer to Problem 120E
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
Since, there are four zeros for polynomial function
Hence, the least possible degree for polynomial function
d.
Verify that the leading coefficient of
d.
Answer to Problem 120E
The leading coefficient is positive since the degree is even and the graph eventually rises to the left and right
Explanation of Solution
Calculation:
The graph is positive in the intervals
According to leading coefficient test, when the degree is even and if the graph rises to the left and right then the leading coefficient is positive
Hence, the leading coefficient is positive since the degree is even and the graph eventually rises to the left and right.
