Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
I assume that we are working in , otherwise there is only one zero which is 1. Please consider the following.
First of all, <u>we can notice that 1 is a trivial solution</u> as
It means that (x-1) is a factor of p(x) so we can find two real numbers, a and b, so that we can write the following.
Let's identify like terms as below.
a-1 = -5 <=> a = -5 + 1 = -4
b-a = 33
-b = -29 <=> b = 29
So
Now, we need to find the zeroes of the second factor, meaning finding x so that:
Hope this helps.
