Polynomial Factors and Zeros

Find the root(s) of the function.

• x = 3
• x = {-3, -1, 2}
• x = {-3, 2}
• x = -1

Find the zero(s) of the function.

• x = 1
• x = -3
• x = {-1, 3}
• x = 2

Find the zeros of the function and graph.
y=(x + 2)(x - 3)(3x - 5)

• x=-2, x=3, x=5/3
• x=2, x=-3, x=-3/5
• x=2, x=-3, x=5/3
• x=-2, x=3, x=5

What are the zeros of the polynomial function?
y = x(x - 6)(x + 5)

• 0, 6, -5
• 6, -5
• 0, -6, 5
• 1, -6, 5

What does it mean to "find the zeros"?

• Finding where the graph crosses the x-axis
• Finding where the graph crosses the y-axis
• Finding the very bottom of the graph.
• Finding the very top of the graph.

What are the linear terms of the polynomial function?

• (x-2)(x-1)(x+1)(x-2)

• (x-2)(x-1)(x+1)(x+2)

• (x-2)(x-1)(x+1)(x+2)(x-4)

• (x-2)(x-1)(x+1)(x+2)(x+4)

What are the
zeros of the polynomial
y = (x + 4)(x + 1)(x - 3)?

• -4, -1, 3
• 3, -3, 4, 1
• 4, 1, -3
• 3, -4, -1, 3

If the zeros of a polynomial are -1, 3, and 7 then what does the polynomial look like in factored form?

• (x-1)(x+3)(x+7)

• (x+1)(x-3)(x-7)

• -x² + 3x + 7

• (x-1)

What are the zeros in (x-5)(x+4)
