Question 423775: use the rational zeros theorem to find all the real zeros of the polynomial function. use the zeros to factor f over the real numbers. f(x)= x^3+ 2x^2 -9x -18. Answer by Gogonati(855) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solution: -3, -2, 3 are all real zeros for this polynomial,thus we can divide it by (x+3), (x-3)and (x+2)
Finally we have:
