Consider the following function. # 1. Factor out the GCF. f(x)=x-x-4x+4x Hint: The answer should look similar to the following. f(x)=?(?-?-?+?) # 2. From the correct answer of # 1, factor out the GCF between the first two terms and last two terms within the parenthesis. Hint: The answer should look similar to the following. f(x)=?(?(?-?)-?(?-?)) # 3. From the correct answer of # 2, there should be two terms inside the parenthesis, factor out the GCF again. Hint: The answer should look similar to the following. f(x)=?(?-?)(x-?) #4. From the correct answer of #3, factor difference of squares. Hint: The answer should look similar to the following. f(x)=?(?-?)(?+?)(?-?) #5. From the correct answer of #4, set the function equal to zero and then set each factor equal to zero. # 6. From the correct answer of #5, find the x-intercepts by solving for x. Write the answers as ordered pairs. #7. From the correct answer of #6, state the multiplicity of each x-intercepts (zeros). # 8. Below each multiplicity in #7, state the graph will cross or turn at the x-axis. # 9. Find the y-intercept. Write the answers as an ordered pair. # 10. Graph the polynomial function by 1.) Plot the x-intercepts 2.) Plot the y-intercept 3.) Applying the leading term test and the multiplicity Consider the following function. # 1.
