Find all the zeros of each function. f(x) = x3 - 3x2 + 4x - 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@timo86m heres my other one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh nevermind ur here already lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try factoring

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omgeeee....... ohk how do i start?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

( ax+b ) (cx^2+ dx+ e ) i guess. find numbers for a b c d e that will make it look like your equation.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wat?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x-3)*(x^2+4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=3 and use the quadratic formula on (x^2+4) to find other 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2i, -2i?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

omg yes :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ur lying!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yayyy!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohk heres my last one f(x) = x3 + 2x2 -3x + 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go ahead and factor lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x+4)*(x^2-2*x+5) pretty much the same way (x+c) * (x^2+x+d) the best hind is to make c and d = 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*hint not hind lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohk so the first 0 isss???? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first zero is (x+4)=0 so x=-4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

next use quadratic formula on (x^2-2*x+5) to find other 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1+2i???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes and 1-2i :) i think they always come in pairs.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ohk and the other one is 2?
