Question

Help please?

"Consider the function f(x) = x^3 + 2x^2 - 25x - 50"

How would I find the possible rational roots of f(x) = 0?

Answer 1

Since the leading coefficient is 1, all you have to do is list all the factors of 50 (both positive and negative)

Answer 2

So\[\pm1, \pm2, \pm5, \pm10, \pm25, \pm50\]

Answer 3

correct
