If a zero of a polynomial function has multiplicity 2 that means:

• The x intercept is at (2, 0)

• The graph will "bounce back" at that zero

• The graph will "pass through" at that zero

• Zeros cannot have multiplicity of 2

What is another word for zeros?

• solutions

• x -intercepts

• roots

• All of the these!

If f(x) = 2x³-13x²+36, is x = 6 an x-intercept?

• No, because f(6) = 30

• Yes, because f(6) = 0

• Yes, because f(6) = 30

• No, because f(6) = 0
