Help me please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

g(x)= 5x^4 + 4x^3 - 32x^2 +5x + 6 I need help finding the zeroes for this equation. I found 2 works.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This function has at least one rational zero. Use this fact to find all zeros of the function.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yourirst find factors of the first and last coefficients of the ordered polynomial. Can you do it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You first*

For 5, it will be just 5 and for 6, it will be 2 and 3.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My mistake! The factors of 5= 1 and 5. The factors of 6= 1,2,3 and 6 itself. Now, the roots are always present by plus or minus in fractions, in which the numerators are every value of the factors of 6 and the denominators are every value of the factors of 5. So to exemplify, one of the roots is +/- 1/1 or +/- 1/5 or +/-2/1 or +/- 2/5 or +/- 3/1 or +/-3/5. You go on till the end and to clarify which exactly are the roots, use a graph calculator or go to graphskecth.com to write the equation formula, appreciate its shape and use your roots to predict where are they in the x-intercept.

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

if 2 is a factor u can use sythetically divide it by \( (x-2)\) to get the other factored part

Directrix (directrix):

@mathgirl2012 Did you start out doing this problem by synthetic division and the Rational Root Theorem? I'm wondering how you found the 2 root.
