Question

The factors of a polynomial are (x + 3)(x - 2)(x + 7). The polynomial has been graphed. How do the solutions relate to the factors?

Answer 1

from this factor (x + 3)(x - 2)(x + 7)
we know that
x + 3=0
x=-3
x - 2=0
x=2
x + 7=0
x=-7

so -3, 2, and -7 are all the x-intercepts of the polynomials
