All possible rational zeroes of a given polynomial using Rational Zeros Theorem and using graph of polynomial to find correct roots.

Answer to Problem 105E
All possible zeros of polynomial
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The polynomial is
Definition used:
Rational Zeros Theorem states that if the polynomial
Calculation:
The leading coefficient of the given polynomial is
The factors of leading coefficient
Factors of the constant coefficient
All possible rational zeros of the polynomial
These zeros can also be written as
Graph of the polynomial
Figure 1
The graph clearly shows the
So the correct rational roots of polynomial
All possible zeros of a polynomial
