👉 Learn how to find all the zeros of a polynomial. A polynomial is an expression of the form ax^n + bx^(n-1) + . . . + k, where a, b, and k are constants and the exponents are positive integers. The zeros of a polynomial are the values of x for which the value of the polynomial is zero.

To find the zeros of a polynomial, we first equate the polynomial to 0 and then use our knowledge of techniques of factoring polynomials to factor the polynomial. After we have factored the polynomial, we can then use the zero-product property to evaluate the factored polynomial and hence obtain the zeros of the polynomial. 

Recall that the zero-product property states that when the product of two or more terms is zero, then either of the term is equal to 0.
