You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Define \"a\" as the factors of the constant ....
\n" ); document.write( "a:1,2,4,8
\n" ); document.write( "Define \"b\" as the factors of the leading coefficient ....
\n" ); document.write( "b:1,2
\n" ); document.write( "The possible zeros are defined as +-(a/b)
\n" ); document.write( "Should be:
\n" ); document.write( "+-1,+-2,+-4,+-8,+-(1/2)
\n" ); document.write( "The answer is (D).
\n" ); document.write( "
