\"\" \ \

\

The function is \"\". \ \

\

If \"\" is a rational zero, then \"\" is a factor of \"\" and \"\" is a factor of \"\". \ \

\

Here, \"\" and \"\". \ \

\

Write the possible value of \"\" in simplest form. \ \

\

\"\" and \"\". \ \

\

\"\" \ \

\

Make a table and test some possible rational zeroes:

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\

The depressed polynomial is \"\".

\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\"\"\"\"\"\"
\

Observe the table: \ \

\

Since \"\", there is a zero at \"\". \ \

\

The depressed polynomial is \"\". \ \

\

The quadratic function is \"\". \ \

\

\"\"                          (Quadratic formula) \ \

\

\"\"            (Substitute \"\" and \"\") \ \

\

\"\"                          (Simplify) \ \

\

\"\"                                    (Subtract and simplify) \ \

\

\"\" and \"\"              (Separate two roots) \ \

\

\"\" and \"\"                                 (Simplify) \ \

\

There is four real roots are \"\", \"\", \"\" and \"\".

\

\"\"

\

The zeroes of the function are \"\" and \"\".
