Question

Find the zeros write in factored form f(x)=7x^3-x^2+7x-1

Answer 1

if u put 1/7 in the equation u get 0 means 1/7 is a root
so x=1/7
or 7x-1 is a factor

now divide the equation by 7x-2 to get other factors

Answer 2

You have to find the zeros first

Answer 3

factors first then from that u find zeros

Answer 4

So divide the whole equation by 7x-2

Answer 5

You can find the zeros by factoring:

\[(7x^3 - x^2 ) + (7x - 1)\]Are there any common factors in the left hand parentheses? Factor them out.

Answer 6

After doing that, you should be able to factor again by using the distributive property in reverse:
\[ab + ac = a(b + c)\]except here the factor will be a binomial.
