Find the real zeros of the following functions.

Name:

Pd:

1. f(x) = x2 - 7x + 10

2. f(x) = x2 + 5x 24

3. f(x) = x2 + 13x + 42

4. f(x) = 12x2 + 4x - 5

5. f(x) = 4x2 - 5x 6

6. f(x) = 5x2 - 22x + 8

7. f(x) = x5 16x

8. f(x) = x4 + 5x2 36

9. f(x) = x3 + 3x2 + 2x + 6

9.

11. f(x) = 2x3 x2 10x + 5

12.

f(x) = x3 4x2 2x + 8

f(x) = x3 + 10x2 + 5x + 50

Find the real zeros by using the quadratic formula:

13. f(x) = x2 + 3x - 8

14. f(x) = x2 14x + 45

15. h(t) = -16t2 + 160t

Use your graphing Calculator to find the real zeros. Then draw a sketch
16. y = 4x3 20x2 + 25x
17. f(x) = 1/4x3(x2 9)

18. f(x) = 2x2 + 8x 1

19. g(x) = x2 2x - 6
