Question

show how to find the zeros, and then describe the other key features of g(x)
g(x) = x3 − x2 − 4x + 4

Answer 1

@Mertsj

Answer 2

well grouping in parts works

\[g(x) = (x^3 - x^2) -(4x - 4)\]

now factor each pair... what do you get..?

Answer 3

Follow up on the factoring as suggested above. Factor x^2 out of the first group. Factor 4 out of the second group

Answer 4

g(x) = x^2(x - 1) - 4(x - 1) = 0

Answer 5

(x^2 - 4)(x - 1) = 0

now you can factor x^2 - 4 ( difference of 2 squares) to give 3 factors which will give you 3 zeroes
