What polynomial has roots of -4, -1, and 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x3 - 9x2 - 22x + 24 x3 - x2 - 26x - 24 x3 + x2 - 26x + 24 x3 + 9x2 + 14x - 24

OpenStudy (neer2890):

the polynomial for the following roots is (x+4)(x+1)(x-6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got x3-2x-26x-24

What is a root? It's simply when the polynomial is zero. So if -4 is a root then that means if you plug in x=-4 we should get zero. So (x+4) will be part of what we need, since zero times anything else is zero, it sort of brings the rest of the equation with it.
