Use the RATIONAL ROOT THEOREM, and you'll find that - 3 is a zero, and so, x + 3 is a factor. From there, you can continue with the RATIOANL ROOT THEOREM, \r\n" );
document.write( "and you'll find that the other zeroes are - 4 and 5, thus making the factors, x + 4 and x - 5. This gives you the factors: (x + 3)(x + 4)(x - 5).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "OR\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Finding the first zero (- 3), you can then use SYNTHETIC DIVISION, over and over, to find the other factors!\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "OR\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Finding the first zero (- 3), you can then use POLYNOMIAL LONG DIVISION, over and over, to find the other factors!
