2. Use the given zeroes to write a polynomial function, f (x), In standard form.
3. Divide: (x 4 - 3x 3 + 2x 2 - 4x + 4)/(x -1) 4. Use the given polynomial function to complete the
Use LONG division & write remainders as fractions following tasks.
f (x) = _x 4 + 2x 3 - 8x - 16

f. Sketch a graph (use the grid provided) and indicate the ACTUAL number for each type of zeros.
POSITIVE: _ _ __ (,1=------
NEGATIVE: _ _,_. IMAGINARY PARTS: _2..

g. On the graph label each of the important points (zeros, as well as mins and max) as ordered pairs. You may estimate
any values to the nearest tenth decimal place. Be sure to include f(O).
