4. What are the zeros of the following functions?


a. (�� + 17)(�� − 8)(�� + 3)3
b. (�� − 4)2(�� + 1)(�� − 5)2
c. (�� + 2)(�� − 1)3(�� − 9)

5. What is the y-intercept of the following polynomials?


a. ��3+ 6��2 − 8�� + 12
b. (�� + 5)(�� + 1)(�� − 9)

6. Fill in the blank with either (bounce) or (cross) to make the statement true.

A graph with an ___________ degree and a ___________ leading


coefficient with have an down and up end behavior (
���� �� → − ∞, �� → − ∞) (���� �� → ∞, �� → ∞)

8. As a pharmacist, you are responsible for knowing about medication dosage,


and how long a dose stays in the patient’s system. Let’s look at an example
of a common medication, called ibuprofen. When a patient takes a 400 mg
dose of ibuprofen, it releases into the bloodstream at a certain rate, and
then decreases over time. The function that models this concentration of
medicine over time is complex and looks like this:

��(��) = 0. 5�� , when 4+ 3. 45��3 − 96. 65��2+ 347. 7�� 0 ≤ �� ≤ 6

Use a calculator to figure out how much ibuprofen would be in a patient's


bloodstream 5 hours after taking the medicine. Round to the nearest tenth
and show your work.
9. Match each graph below in column 1 with the function in column 2 that
it represents.
