Answer:

f(x) = x³ + x² - 5x + 3

Explanation:

The cubic polynomial has zeros at 1, 1, - 3.

Therefore, x = 1, 1, - 3 are the roots of the polynomial and hence, (x - 1), (x - 1) and (x + 3) will be factors of the cubic polynomial.

Hence, we can write the polynomial as a function of x as

f(x) = (x - 1)(x - 1)(x + 3)

⇒ f(x) = (x² - 2x + 1)(x + 3)

⇒ f(x) = x³ - 2x² + 3x² + x - 6x + 3

f(x) = x³ + x² - 5x + 3

So, this is the cubic polynomial function in standard form. (Answer)
