List all possible rational zeros using the rational zero theorem. Example: List the possible rational zeros for the function: Factors of the constant: Factors of the leading coefficient: Possible rational zeros: Possible rational zeros:
List all possible rational zeros using the rational zero theorem.
Descartes’ Rule of Signs # of positive real zeros: # of sign changes for f(x) or an even integer less than the sign change. # of negative real zeros: # of sign changes for f(-x) or an even integer less than the sign change.
Use Descartes’ Rule of Signs to discuss the real zeros of the polynomial.
Find the zeros of a polynomial function. List the possible rational zeros of the function. Use Descartes’ Rule of Signs to determine the possible number of positive and negative zeros. Test the zeros using division. (Since the zeros are x-intercepts, when you divide you should end up with a remainder of zero.) Factor if you get a factorable polynomial.

Fundamental Theorem of Algebra If f(x) is a polynomial with degree of n (where n>0), then the equation f(x) = 0 has at least one solution. Corollary: The equation f(x) = 0 has exactly n solutions provided you count multiple solutions.
Conjugates Theorem If is an imaginary zero of function f, then is also a zero. If is a zero of function f where is irrational, then is also a zero.
