Question

5.Find the polynomial function with roots 1, 7, and -3 of multiplicity 2

Answer 1

well the polynomial is

P(x) = a(x -1)(x-7)(x + 3)^2

a is just a constant, for your question you could consider a = 1

multiplicity means that the root is repeated, in your question it is repeated twice, so the power is 2.

just distribute for your answer

hope this helps
