Which statement is correct?

• The zeros of this polynomial are 0, 2, and 5. 

• The solution 5 has a multiplicity of 2

• The solution 1 has a multiplicity of 1

• There are 4 solutions. 

A graph of a polynomial equation of degree 5 has three real x-intercepts (touches the x- intercept at 3 different points). Check off ALL the possible situations of what type of roots they could be.

• Double Root, Double Root, Triple Root

• Single Root, Double Root, Double Root

• Single Root, Single Root, Single Root, Two Imaginaries

• Single Root, Single Root, Double Root, Imaginary

• Single Root, Triple Root, Single Root

Find the zeroes of the function. State the multiplicity of each zero.

• -7 with multiplicity 2; 3 with multiplicity 4
