Answer:

  x^4 -53x^2 +108x +160

Step-by-step explanation:

If <em>a</em> is a zero, then (<em>x-a</em>) is a factor. For the given zeros, the factors are ...

  p(x) = (x +8)(x +1)(x -4)(x -5)

Multiplying these out gives the polynomial in standard form.

  = (x^2 +9x +8)(x^2 -9x +20)

We note that these factors have a sum and difference with the same pair of values, x^2 and 9x. We can use the special form for the product of these to simplify our working out.

  = (x^2 +9x)(x^2 -9x) +20(x^2 +9x) +8(x^2 -9x) +8(20)

  = x^4 -81x^2 +20x^2 +180x +8x^2 -72x +160

  p(x) = x^4 -53x^2 +108x +160

_____

The graph shows this polynomial has the required zeros.

You need to set up a fraction. You can use red/blue which would be 5/7. Then, create the second ratio which would be 8/12. And there you will find your answer, which this answer also works for your answering wether you get yes or no.
