f(x) = (x+2)(x-3)²(x-4)

Which choice best describes the zeros?

• -2, 3 (multiplicity 2), 4

• -2 (multiplicity 2), 3, 4

• 2, -3 (multiplicity 2), -4

• 2 (multiplicity 2), -3, -4

f(x)=(x+4)(x-3)(x-2)

List the zeros for this function.

• x= -4, x=3, x= -2

• x= -4, x=3, x=2

• x= -4, x=-3, x=2

• x=4, x= -3, x= -2

• no real solutions

Find the sum.
(2x² + 5x - 7) + ( 3 - 4x² + 6x)

• 2x² + 3x +1
• -2x² - 11x -4
• 2x² + 5x -7
• -2x² + 11x -4

Find the difference. 
(3- 2x + 2x²) - (4x -5 +3x²)

• x_² + 6x + 8
• 2x² + 5x - 7
• -x² -6x + 8
• -2x² + 11x - 4
