Question

Write the polynomial f(x) that meets the given conditions. Answers may vary.

Degree 3 polynomial with integer coefficients and zeros of -5/2, 3/5, and 2

Answer 1

f(x) = (-2x + 5)(5x + 3)(x - 2)

= (-2x + 5)(5x² - 7x - 6)

= -10x³ + 14x² + 12x + 25x² - 35x - 30

= -10x³ + 39x² - 23x - 30
