Consider the following polynomial functions. Answer parts a through f below.
f(x)={
(
x-6)(x-7)(x 8)
}
g(x)=x^(3) 2x^(2)-x-2
h(x)=4x^(3) 8x^(2)-4x-8
a. What is the value of f(6)? 4(6) =
?
(Simplify your answer.) b. For what values, other than 6 , is
f(x)=f(6)
?
x=
?
(Use a comma to separale answers as needed.) c. Evatuate the following.
g(-1)=?
g(1)=?
g(-2)=
d. Based on your answers from part c, what do you think is the factored form of
g(x)
? Verily your answer by multiplying
t
out and comparing with gix).
