f(x)=x -2x +3x -4x+6
Divide
by
x2+2x-, write a summary
statement in fraction form.
f(x)=(x2-4x+12)(x2+2x-1)-32x+18
If a polynomial is divided by
___, then the remainder is
r=f(k).
x-k
Using the remainder theorem,
find the remainder when
f(x)=3x2+7x-20 is divided by

Real zeros of a polynomial
function are either ________
zeros – zeroes that are rational
numbers – or __________
zeros – zeros that are irrational
numbers.
rational, irrational
Find the rational zeros of
f(x)=x3-3x2+1
f(1)=(1)3-3(1)2+1=-1
f(-1)=(-1)3-3(-1)2+1=-3
So f has no rational zeros.
Use the rational zeroes theorem
to write a list of all possible

1, 2, 3, 6
(all positive & negative)
Use the rational zeroes theorem
to write a list of possible rational
zeroes:
f(x)=2x3-x2-9x+9
1, 3, 9
1, 2
(all positive & negative)
Find all the zeroes of the
function and identify each zero
as rational or irrational:
f(x)=2x4-7x3-2x2-7x-4
-1/2 and 4; rational
No irrational
We narrow our search for real
zeros by using a test that
identifies upper and lower
______ for real zeros.
