A General Note: Factored Form of Polynomials If a polynomial of lowest degree p has zeros at x=x1,x2,…,xnx=x1,x2,…,xn, then the polynomial can be written in the factored form: f(x)=a(x−x1)p1(x−x2)p2⋯(x 6
Positive exponents mean that the decimal place in the number representing A, from the formula above, will be moved forward or to the right. This means we can take 8.7, move the decimal forward five spaces, and use four zeros as placeholders. Thus, we get this image of 870000 written in...
