\[(x+3)^2(x-5)^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[f(x)=(x+3)^2(x-5)^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To verify 0s of x: \[(x+3)^2(x-5)^2=0\] \[(x+3)^2=0\] \[(x-5)^2=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how would you verify the zeros of f(x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(x+3)(x+3)=0\] \[(x-5)(x-5)=0\] So now you have 4 equations: \[x+3=0\] \[x+3=0\] \[x-5=0\] \[x-5=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve them to get the solutions: \[x=-3\] \[x=-3\] \[x=5\] \[x=5\] See two repeated roots, one is -3, the other one is 5
