How to Use Factoring to Find All of the Zeros of a Polynomial Function

The video tutorial guides students through the process of solving homework problems by factoring. It begins with an overview of the task, which involves finding zeros of a function by setting F of X to zero. The teacher explains the importance of factoring and finding the greatest common factor (GCF) before demonstrating a step-by-step example of factoring a quadratic expression. The tutorial concludes with solving the factored equation to find the zeros and their multiplicities.
