Content Objective: You will be able to use the Rational Root Theorem in conjunction with the graphing calculator to find the real roots of a polynomial 

Essential Skill: DM­1 Use the graphing calculator to advance our critical thinking and construct knowledge.

Closure:

Answer the following questions on the back of your packet. Work with the person next to you.

1. Why do you think we use the graphing calculator with the Rational Root Theorem? (Think: Why is it helpful, is there a better way, could we do it by hand? etc.)
