Multiplicity of Polynomials

Which zero has an odd multiplicity?

• -4

• 4

• 2

• -2

Which root has even multiplicity?

• 1
• -4
• -1
• 2

For each function, determine the real zeros and state the multiplicity of any repeated zeros.

• {0 mult. 3, 5, 2}

• {−2 mult. 3, 3, 1}

• {0 mult. 3, 3, 2}

• {2 mult. 3, 3, 3}
