Sketch the following polynomial and identify all intercepts, zeros, and include a chart showing points that are necessary to sketch the polynomial:
\n" ); document.write( "y=3x^3-14x^2+17x-6
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "the coefficients add up to zero so x=1 is a zero of the polynomial.
\n" ); document.write( "Use synthetic division to find the other factor:
\n" ); document.write( "1)....3....-14....+17....-6
\n" ); document.write( "........3.....-11....6...|..0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Quotient: 3x^2-11x+6
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Use the quadratic formula to find the remaining zeroes:
\n" ); document.write( "x = [11 +- sqrt(121-4*3*6]/6
\n" ); document.write( "x = [11 +- sqrt(49)]/6
\n" ); document.write( "x = 3 or x = 2/3 or x = 1
\n" ); document.write( "==============================
\n" ); document.write( "Cheers,
