What does Descartes rule of signs tell us

The video tutorial explains how to use Descartes' Rule of Signs to determine the number of positive and negative real zeros in a polynomial. It begins with an introduction to the importance of using technology and tools in polynomial analysis. The tutorial then provides a detailed explanation of Descartes' Rule, followed by a practical example to illustrate its application. The process of evaluating negative zeros is also covered, along with practical tips for using the rule effectively. The tutorial concludes with a summary of key points.
