What is the third–degree polynomial function such that f(0) = –12 and whose zeros are 1, 2, and 3? f(x) = 2x3 + 12x2 – 22x – 12 f(x) = 2x3 – 12x2 + 22x – 12 f(x) = 4x3 – 24x2 + 22x – 24 f(x) = 4x3 + 24x2 – 44x – 24 What is the third–degree polynomial function such that f(0) = –12 and whose zeros are 1, 2, and 3? f(x) = 2x3 + 12x2 – 22x – 12 f(x) = 2x3 – 12x2 + 22x – 12 f(x) = 4x3 – 24x2 + 22x – 24 f(x) = 4x3 + 24x2 – 44x – 24 @Mathematics

c and d options can be eliminated as they will not give -12 when x=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

option a also can be eliminated as the reminder is not zero when divided by 1

So the answer is Option b which will give zero when divided by 1,2,3
