-3
-120
4
The degree of the polynomial determines the number of roots.
True
False
f(x)=(x+4)(x-3)(x-2)
List the zeros for this function.
x=-4, x=3, x=-2
x=-4, x=3, x=2
x=-4, x=3, x=-2
x=4, x=3, x=2
If a zero of a polynomial function has multiplicity 3 that means:
The x intercept is at (4, 0)
The graph will "bounce back" at that zero
The graph will "pass through" at that zero
Zeros cannot have multiplicity of 4
Which of the following allows you to describe the end behavior of a polynomial?

degree and the variable
the degree and the leading coefficent
f(x)= x2(x – 2)3(x – 7)
Find and select each real zero and its multiplicity
0 (Mult of 2), 2 (Mult of 3), 7 (mult 1)
2 (Mult of 3), 7 (mult 1)
0, 2, 7
