Applying Rational Zero Test Then Find All of the Zeros

The video tutorial explains how to find rational zeros of a polynomial function. It begins with an introduction to the concept and the importance of understanding zeros beyond using technology. The rational zero test is explained, followed by a discussion on factoring techniques and their limitations. The tutorial then demonstrates using synthetic division and the remainder theorem to verify potential zeros. Finally, graphing is used to visualize the function, and the process is concluded with a summary of the findings.
