⦁ Determine the zeros of f(x) = (x + 1)^2(x – 3)(x – 4). Indicate the multiplicity of any factors that occur more than once.

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros equate f(x) to zero , that is

(x + 1)²(x - 3)(x - 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x- 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

x - 3 = 0 ⇒ x = 3

(x + 1)² = 0 ⇒ (x + 1) = 0 , x + 1 = 0 ( 2 factors ) , then

x = - 1 with multiplicity 2

10000
