Question 1023616: Consider the polynomial P(x), shown in both standard form and factored form.
P(x)=(1/5)x^4 −(3/5)x^3 −3x^2 +(19/5)x+6=1(x+3)(x+1)(x−2)(x−5)
a. State the y-intercept
b. Please graph

P(x) = (1/5)x^4 −(3/5)x^3 −3x^2 + (19/5)x + 6 = 1(x+3)(x+1)(x−2)(x−5)
a. State the y-intercept
This occurs when x = 0, therefore the y intercept = 6
The x intercept can be determined from the factors
x = -3, -1, 2, 5 are the x intercepts
:
b. Please graph
