How to find the zeros by factoring as well as label the multiplicity

The video tutorial covers the process of factoring polynomials, starting with identifying common factors and factoring trinomials. It explains how factoring is similar to division and provides examples to illustrate this concept. The tutorial also discusses the concept of multiplicity in factored form and how it affects the graph of a polynomial. Finally, it demonstrates the application of the Zero Product Property to solve equations, emphasizing the importance of checking solutions through multiplication.

What is the first step in factoring a polynomial?

• Add a constant

• Multiply all terms

• Divide by a constant

• Replace Y with zero

When factoring by division, what is the common factor in the expression 3X - 6?

• X

• 3

• 6

• X^2

What should you do to verify your factoring work?

• Divide the factors

• Multiply the factors

• Subtract the factors

• Add the factors

What does an even multiplicity indicate about the graph at that root?

• The graph has a vertical asymptote

• The graph bounces off the x-axis

• The graph crosses the x-axis

• The graph remains constant

How do you find the roots of a polynomial using the Zero Product Property?

• Multiply all factors

• Divide by the leading coefficient

• Set each factor to zero

• Add all terms to zero
