Which of the following could be the equation of this graph in factored form? (Careful-pay attention to multiplicity.)

• f(x) = (x-4)(x-1)²(x+2)(x+4)

• f(x) = (x-4)(x+1)²(x+2)(x+4)

• f(x) = (x-4)(x-1)²(x-2)(x+4)

• f(x) = (x+4)(x+1)²(x-2)(x-4)

Which of the following could be the equation of the graph in factored form?

• y=-(x+1)(x-2)(x-4)

• y=(x+1)²(x-2)
  (x-4)³

• y = x(x+1)(x-2)
  (x-4)

• y=(x+1)³(x-3)
  (x-1)²

Identify the zeros:

• x=-2, x=-1, x=0

• x=-2, x=0

• x=-1, x=0, x=2

• x=-2, x=0, x=1

Match the equation to the graph. Remember to look at your roots, multiplicity, and end behavior!! Use your notes!

• y=-(x+1)(x-2)(x-4)

• y=(x+1)²(x-3)(x-1)³

• y = 3x³ – 2x + 1

• y=(x+1)³(x-3)(x-1)²

Which equation MOST LIKELY matches the graph?

• y = x⁴ - x³ + 3x² + 2

• y = -x⁴ + x³ + 5x + 2

• y = x³ - 2x² + 1x + 3

• y = -x³ - 2x² + 1x + 3

Remember to look at your roots, multiplicity, and end behavior!! Use your notes!

• y = ^_(x + 2)(x - 1)²

• y = -(x - 2)(x + 1)²

• y = (x - 2)(x + 1)²

• y = -x³

In the above graph, which root has a multiplicity of 2? Remember to look at your roots, multiplicity, and end behavior!! Use your notes!
