Provide an appropriate response.Explain how the intermediate value theorem can be used to show that there is a zero for 
between -1 and -3.
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary. f(-1) > 0 and f(-3) < 0. Since the function is a polynomial function it is continuous on the interval between -1 and -3. Thus the function must contain a point between -1 and -3 such that
