Question 848838: Find a fourth-degree polynomial P(x) that has zeros at
x = 0, x = 1, x = −1, and x = −4,
and whose x^2-term has coefficient 7. Answer by swincher4391(1107) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = 0 ----> x
x = 1 ----> x-1
x=-1 ------> x+1
x=4 ------>x-4
We need x^2 to have coefficient 7, but we have -1. So multiply the entire polynomial -7.
