What do the zeros roots tell us of a polynomial

The video tutorial explains the concept of zeros in polynomial functions, also known as roots or solutions. It discusses how these zeros are related to the factors of the polynomial and how they can be found by setting the function equal to zero. The tutorial demonstrates factoring a polynomial and using the zero product property to find the zeros. It concludes by summarizing the relationship between zeros, factors, and x-intercepts.
