The zeros of the function are x 1, x1, and x4, and these are the x-intercepts of the function’s graph. The result of expanding x1x1x4 is x34x2 x4. The leading term, x3, has a positive coefficient and an odd exponent, so p x approaches as x approaches , and p x approaches as x approaches . Of the four given graphs, only the one shown below has these characteristics.
Feedback

B That’s correct!
C Check the end behavior of p x .
D Check the zeros and end behavior of p x .

20. ANS: D
The function p(x)(x1)2(x2)(x5) has 3 zeros, 1, 2, and 5. Since x1 is a factor twice, 1 is a zero twice, so the function’s graph would be tangent to the x-axis at x 1. Since x2 and x5 are factors once, 2 and 5 are zeros once, so the function’s graph would cross the x-axis at x2 and x 5.
Feedback
A Make sure you have identified the zeros of the function correctly.
B Make sure you have identified the zeros of the function correctly.
C This function is cubic, so its end behavior will not be the same at both ends of the graph.
D That’s correct!
ID: A
21. ANS: C
The number of unique real zeros that a polynomial function has is equal to the number of times the graph of the function intersects the x-axis.
p(x) x4x23x26x
3x x 4x2x2
This function has 3 unique real zeros, 0, 4, and 2, so the graph intersects the x-axis three times. Since two of those zeros, 0 and 4, each occur once, the graph crosses the x-axis at x 0 and x 4. Since one of those zeros, 2, occurs twice, the graph is tangent to the x-axis at x 2.
Feedback
A Identify all of the zeros of the function and how many times each zero occurs. B Identify all of the zeros of the function and how many times each zero occurs.
C That’s correct!
D Identify all of the zeros of the function and how many times each zero occurs.
