The value - 2 is a lower bound for the zeros of the function shown below.

f (x) = 4x^3-12x^2-x+15

A) true

B) false

a) true

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom-line numbers from synthetic division alternate signs, indicating that - 2 is a lower bound. The given statement is true.

__

If the signs were all positive, it would indicate the proposed zero is an upper bound.
