The \"\" degree polynomial function \"\" and leading coefficient \"\".

\

The polynomial function \"\".

\

The degree of polynomial is even (n = 4) and leading coefficient is positive (\"\").

\

Since the graph rises to the left and right.\"\"

\

To find the real zeros of the function, set f(x) equal to zero and solve for x.

\

The polynomial function \"\".

\

\"\"                                   (Set f(x) equal to zero)

\

\"\"                               (Remove common monomial factor)

\

\"\"                     (Factor completely)

\

So, the real zeros are \"\".

Since the x - intercepts occur at \"\".\"\"

\

The real zeros are \"\".
