Answer:

6) The given equation is,


f(x)=(x+7)^2(2x+1)(x-4)^3

we know that,

The number of times a given factor appears in the factored form of the equation of a polynomial is called the multiplicity.

we get,

Zero Multiplicity Effect

-7 2 Touches the x axis at x=-7

-1/2 1 Passese through the x axis at x=-1/2

4 3 Passes through the point and the curve bend at x=4
