Please help me with this polynomial expression:
P(x) = x^5-3x^4+12x^3-28x^2+27x-9 --> Directions: Find all the zeros of the polynomial.
--Thank you :)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Easier to try to find all the rational zeros. Try synthetic division to check possible roots, {-1,-3,-9,1,3,9}. You could find up to five of them which will give remainder of 0.
Say if you have any more trouble with this.

The sum of the COEFFICIENTS of the right-side is 0. Therefore, 1 is a ZERO.
This means that: x = 1, and therefore, is a factor.
Use this info to find the others.
