Question

3,-8,0 write a polynomial function in standard form with the given zeros

Answer 1

Here's how to do it, in a nutshell...
if you want a polynomial to have specific zeros, say, p and q, then just multiply these factors:
(x - p)(x - q)

For example, I want a polynomial with zeros 4 and -5
Then:
(x - 4)(x - -5) = (x - 4)(x + 5) = x^2 + x - 20

Not so bad right?

Answer 2

im still confused tho lol

Answer 3

Again with the examples -_-

what about if I want a polynomial whose zeros are 9 and -4
Then we multiply
(x - 9)(x + 4) = x^2 - 5x - 36

Answer 4

can u do 1 with 3 zeros

Answer 5

It's the same, except you'd have three factors.
Try and have a go with this one, go on ^.^

Answer 6

so far ive got (x-3)(x+8)(x-0)
after that i folied the 1st 2 n got (x^2+8x-3x-24)(x-0)
i cant get any farther

Answer 7

x-0 is just x
I'm sure distributing that is child's play :)

Answer 8

i got (x^2-5x-24)(x-0)
do u go any farther

Answer 9

of course. like I said, x-0 this is just x.
(right?)

so it becomes x(x^2 - 5x - 24)

now just bring in the x.

Answer 10

is that the answer x(x^2-5x-24)

Answer 11

I already told you to bring in that x? XD

Answer 12

lol thanks
