write the polynomial in standard form x=0,0,2

Question

directrix · Answer

@ayeesiaa 

Are these --> x=0,0,2   roots of the polynomial?

anonymous · Answer

i guess

directrix · Answer

Well, if  x=0,0,2 are roots, then the factors of the polynomial are the following:

(x - 0) and (x-0) and (x-2) 

Get the product of (x - 0)* (x-0)* (x-2)  and post here.  Thanks.

We're not finished. Factored form is not the same as standard form. 
Keep working.

7 multiplicity 3

directrix · Answer

> 7 multiplicity 3  -->  means that 7 is a triple root. That is not the answer to the posted question "write the polynomial in standard form."

We seriously need to get this product --? (x - 0)* (x-0)* (x-2)
