The values that make each of the factors zero. In other words, you need to solve:x - 2 = 0

and:

x - 5 = 0

What are the factors of the polynomial below x2 6x-27?

x2 + 6x - 27 = (x + 9)(x - 3)


Are a polynomial's factors the values at which the graph of a polynomial meets the y-axis?

Not quite. The polynomial's linear factors are related - not equal to - the places where the graph meets the x-axis. For example, the polynomial x2 - 5x + 6, in factored form, is (x - 2) (x - 3). In this case, +2 and +3 are "zeroes" of the polynomial, i.e., the graph crosses the x-axis. That is, in an x-y graph, y = 0.


What are the factors of the polynomial x2 plus 5x - 14?

x2+5x-14 = (x+7)(x-2) when factored


What is the factor of the polynomial in descending order x2 plus 7x plus 10?

Restate the question: Factor the polynomial x2 + 7x + 10. You look for two numbers which multiply to make 10 and add to make 7. They are 5 and 2. Now put them into the two factors: (x + 5)(x + 2). Check your factors by multiplying using 'FOIL': x2 + 2x + 5x + 10 = x2 + 7x + 10. Check!
