Question

Find the zeros of the polynomial function and state the multiplicity of each f(x) = 5(x + 8)^2(x - 8)^3

Answer 1

Is it 5*(x+8)*2*(x-8)*3?

Answer 2

Yes, I am sorry

Answer 3

Well, any value that makes any of those quantities zero will be a zero of the function

Answer 4

The 'multiplicity' is just how many times that zero occurs

Answer 5

Thank you, I've got it now and was able to finish my assignment.

Answer 6

Good :)
