Question

Summarize how the Rational Zeros Theorem, the Factor Theorem, and polynomial division are used together to find the zeros of a polynomial.

Answer 1

If

P(x)

is a polynomial with integer coefficients and if

is a zero of

P(x)

(

P() = 0

), then

p

is a factor of the constant term of

P(x)

and

q

is a factor of the leading coefficient of

P(x)
