Question

Y=(x+2)^2(x-5)^4
Find the zeros. State the multiplicity

Answer 1

the multiplicity is the exponent of the factor

Answer 2

Then how would I find the zeros

Answer 3

set each factor equal to zero and solve
for example \(x+2=0\iff x=-2\)

Answer 4

so you would say "\(-2\) is a zero with multiplicity 2"

Answer 5

Thank you that helps a lot
