Question: Find the zeros for the polynomial function and give the multiplicity for each zero. State whether the graph crosses thex-axis or touches thex-axis and turns
Find the zeros for the polynomial function and give the multiplicity for each zero. State whether the graph crosses thex-axis or touches thex-axis and turns around at each zero.
f(x) = x^3 + 9x^2 - 16x - 144
1)Determine the zeroes if they exist
The zero(s) is/are ?
Type integers or decimals. Use a comma to separate answers asneeded.
2) Determine the multiplicities of thezero(s), if they exist. Select the correct choice belowand, ifnecessary, fill in the answerbox(es) within your choice.
a) There is one zero. The muliplicity of the zero is ? (simplify
b) There are three zeros. The multiplicity of the smallest zero is ? The multiplicity of the largest zero is ? and the multiplicity of the other zero is?
c) There are two zeros. The multiplicity of the smallest zero is? The multiplicity of the largest zero is ? and the multiplicity of the other zero is?
Determine the behavior of the function at each zero. Select the correct choice aboveand, ifnecessary, fill in the answer boxes within your choice.
