SWBAT
Identify the possible rational zeros of a polynomial.
Find all the rational zeroes of a polynomial.
Holt McDougal Algebra 2
Holt Algebra 2

3. Definitions Rational Zeros Theorem:
tells us how to make a list of all potential rational zeros for a polynomial function with integer coefficients.
The first coefficient is ‘q’ the last (constant) is ‘p’.
Find factors of both to create

4. Ex 1: Find the rational zeros of: f(x) = 3x3 + 4x2 – 5x – 2 p = -2 q = 3

5. Ex 2: Given:
a) List all the possible rational zeroes of each functions.
b) Which ones work using the remainder theorem?

6. Ex. 3: Find All Possible Zeros
