Answer to Problem 42PPS
The zeros of the function
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The function
Formula used:
A polynomial of n degree has n zeros, which can be either real or imaginary.
Descartes’ rule of signs states that consider a polynomial
Calculation:
Consider the function
Observe that degree of polynomial is 3, so the functions has 3 zeros which can be either real or imaginary.
Descartes’ rule of signs states that consider a polynomial
So, count the number of times the sign changes between the coefficients of
There is 1 positive real zeros.
Now,
Descartes’ rule of signs states that consider a polynomial
So, count the number of times the sign changes between the coefficients of
There are 2 or 0 negative real zero.
Next, construct a table with possible combinations of real and imaginary zeros.
Recall that the Rational zero theorem states that provided a polynomial
For the provided function leading coefficient is 2 and constant term is 3 Therefore, p is a factor of 3 and q is a factor of 2.
The possible combinations of
Next, construct a table with help of synthetic substitution to compute the value of
As observed three zeros are resulted at
Thus, the zeros of the function

Answer to Problem 42PPS
The function represented by graph is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The functions
Consider the graph provided below,
Observe the points at which the graph intersects the x -axis.
Such points are
This means the zeroes of the function depicted by the graph are
From the above calculations the function
Therefore, the graph of the function represented by graph is
