1 7.6 Rational Zero Theorem Algebra II w/ trig

2 RATIONAL ZERO THEOREM: If a polynomial has integer coefficients, then the possible rational zeros must be a factor of the constant term divided by a factor of the leading coefficient. ▫For ▫Constant term: number hanging off the end ▫Leading coefficient: a n Remember roots and zeros are the solutions to the equation f(x)=0

3 I.List all of the possible rational zeros of each function. A.

4 B. C.

5 II. Find all zeros. A.

6 B.

7 C. f(x) = 8x 4 + 2x 3 + 5x 2 + 2x - 3

8 D. g(x) = x 4 + 2x 3 – 11x 2 - 60

9 E. f(x)= x 5 – 6x 3 + 8x
