How could you determine    if x-2 is a factor of 2x³-5x²+x-2?

• Use synthetic division and see if the remainder is zero
• Flip a coin

If a zero of a polynomial function has multiplicity 4 that means:

• The x intercept is at (4, 0)
• The graph will "bounce back" at that zero
• The graph will "pass through" at that zero
• Zeros cannot have multiplicity of 4
