Karla -If k=2/7 is a zero, then (x - 2/7) is a factor of this polynomial.  So, the next step is to use either long division or synthetic division.For example, divide the polynomial using "long" division by "x - 2/7".  You will have a quadratic equation left to solve. Solve the quadratic using the quadratic formula.Hope that helps
