Rational Root-Synthetic Division for x^2+7x+6>=0 MathCelebrity logo Image to Crop Using the rational roots (rational zero) theorem
Determine any roots for x2+7x+6> = 0
Set up the a, b, and c values:

a = 1, b = 7, c = 6

Using the rational roots (rational zero) theorem:
Find roots for x2 + 7x + 6≥
Rational roots of a polynomial will be q/p where
q is a factor of the constant term (8805)
and p is a factor of the leading x2 coefficient (1)

Determine our list of p values first:

Numbers (1 - 1)1 ÷ Number ListFactor of p?
11 ÷ 1 = 1Y
Our factor list for p is {1}

Let's determine our list of q values next:

Numbers (1 - 8805)8805 ÷ Number ListFactor of q?
18805 ÷ 1 = 8805Y
38805 ÷ 3 = 2935Y
58805 ÷ 5 = 1761Y
158805 ÷ 15 = 587Y
5878805 ÷ 587 = 15Y
17618805 ÷ 1761 = 5Y
29358805 ÷ 2935 = 3Y
88058805 ÷ 8805 = 1Y
Our factor list for q is {1,3,5,15,587,1761,2935,8805}

Calculate our q ÷ p = r values
