FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you find the zeros of the polynomial y = (x + 4)(x + 1)(x - 3)?
Back
Set each factor equal to zero: x + 4 = 0 (x = -4), x + 1 = 0 (x = -1), x - 3 = 0 (x = 3). The zeros are -4, -1, and 3.

What does the leading coefficient of a polynomial indicate?
Back
The leading coefficient indicates the direction of the end behavior of the polynomial. If it is positive, the right end rises; if negative, the right end falls.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Describe the end behavior of f(x) = -5x^4 - 2x^2 + 8.
Back
As x approaches -∞, f(x) approaches -∞; as x approaches +∞, f(x) also approaches -∞.
