Multiple Choice

• EVEN degree

• ODD degree

Multiple Choice

​Multiplicity

• A zero has MULTIPLICITY.

• ​Multiplicity is the number of times the zero's associated factor appears in the polynomials.

• ​You can determine if the graph will bounce or cross  the x-axis from the multiplicity  

  • ​If the multiplicity is odd, the graph will cross at that zero

  • ​If the multiplicity is even, the graph will bounce at that zero 

Multiple Select

Select all the zeros (with multiplicities) of

$$f\left(x\right)=\left(x+2\right)\left(x-1\right)^2$$  

• x= -2 multiplicity 2

• x= 2 multiplicity 1

• x= -2 multiplicity 1

• x= -1 multiplicity 2

• x= 1 multiplicity 2

Multiple Select

$$f\left(x\right)=\left(x+2\right)\left(x-1\right)^2$$  

From the last question, we know that f(x) has zeros at

x= -2 multiplicity 1 and x= 1 multiplicity 2.

Select whether the graph of f(x) will cross or bounce at each of the zeros.

• cross at x= -2

• bounce at x= -2

• cross at x=1

• bounce at x=1

Multiple Select

Select all the zeros (with multiplicities) of

$$g\left(x\right)=-2x^2\left(x+4\right)^2$$  

• x= -4 multiplicity 2

• x= 4 multiplicity 2

• x= 0 multiplicity 2

• x= 2 multiplicity 2

• x= -2 multiplicity 2

They are also the values of x that, when plugged into a function, cause the value of the function to be zero.

​

Zeros are just x-intercepts

Multiple Choice

The graph of f(x) is shown. Which statement about f(x) is true?

• The zero of f(x) is -3

• The zero of f(x) is 2

• The zeros of f(x) are -1 and 1

• The zeros of f(x) are -6 and 6

The Zeros and Factors of a Function are related

The degree of the function matches the number of zeros that the function has.

Some zeros may be "nonreal" which means that they will not be visible on the x-axis.

The function below has 6 zeros because it is of degree 6.
