A Polynomial of Degree 4 with Real Zeros

You should be familiar with the concepts of leading term test for end behavior and multiplicity of zeros before watching this tutorial - the emphasis is on finding Real zeros by the factor/sign method. This is an algorithmic process that can be mastered with some practice. The process will later be modified for rational functions. That will be the subject of a later tutorial in this section.
