Find All the Zeros of a Polynomial by Factoring

The video tutorial guides students through the process of factoring a quadratic expression. It begins with replacing F of X with zero and factoring out a greatest common factor (GCF). The teacher explains how to factor the expression into binomials, identify possible factors, and determine the correct signs to achieve the desired middle term. The tutorial concludes with a verification of the factorization and a brief wrap-up.
