Multiplicity of zeros by factoring a polynomial equation

The video tutorial explains how to find the zeros of a function by rewriting it as a product of linear factors. It begins with an introduction to the concept of zeros and linear factorization. The instructor demonstrates factoring out common terms and then focuses on factoring quadratic trinomials into linear factors. The zero product property is used to find the zeros, and the concept of multiplicity is discussed. The session concludes with a review and a Q&A segment.
