Round 4 - Mix of All

If the graph of a function crosses the x-axis, what does that mean about the multiplicity of that zero?

• Even Multiplicity

• Odd Multiplicity

• None

How many zeros does this polynomial have?

• 0

• 1

• 2

• 3

Which is NOT the location of one of the zeros of this polynomial?

• (-6, 0)

• (4, 0)

• (-2, 0)

• (2, 0)

 $f\left(x\right)=\left(x+4\right)\left(x-3\right)\left(x-2\right)$  
Where will the graph of this polynomial NOT have an x-intercept?

• (-4, 0)

• (3, 0)

• (2, 0)

• (-2, 0)

Which polynomial best matches the graph?

(Think about zeros & multiplicities!)

• f(x) = (x+2)²(x-1)(x-3)

• f(x) = (x-2)²(x+1)(x+3)

• f(x) = (x-3)²(x-1)(x+2)

• f(x) = (x+2)(x-1)(x-3)
