Question 922715: Let P(x) = (6x � 5)(x + 4)(5x � 2)(x + 8).
a) What is the degree of P(x)?
b) List the exact coordinates of the points which are the
x-intercepts of the graph of P(x).
c) Name the exact coordinates of the point which is the y-intercept
of the graph of P(x).
d) Solve P(x) = 0.
e) Write P(x) in the form P(x) = an(x � x1)(x � x2)∙∙∙(x � xn) where
an is the leading coefficient of P(x) and x1 , ..., xn are the zeros
of P(x)
