Multiplicity is how many times a root repeats
factor
x(x²-8x+16)
what times wat =16 and adds to -8
-4 and -4
x(x-4)(x-4)
x(x-4)²
set to zero
x=0

x-4=0
x=4

roots are 0 ad 4

4 repeats 2 times, so has a multiplicty of 2


so
roots are 0, and 4 multiplicity 2

Answer:

x =0, x =4, x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: f(x) = x^3 -8x^2 +16x

To find the zeros, we need to plug in f(x) = 0, we get

x^3 - 8x^2 +16x = 0

Here x is the common factor, so we can take it out.

x(x^2 - 8x +16) = 0

Now we can factorize x^2 -8x +16

x^2 -8x +16 = (x -4)(x-4)

So

x(x^2 - 8x -16) = 0

x(x-4)(x-4) = 0

x = 0, (x -4) = 0, x-4 = 0

x =0, x = 4, x = 4

Here the two roots are real and equal.

Therefore, the zeros of the given function are x =0 and x = 4 and x = 4

Answer:

96

Step-by-step explanation:

If B is the midpoint of AC, the length of AC has to be twice the length of AB. This is because AB = AC. Twice 48 is 96.

Describe the transformation done to y=1/x to get y=1/4x-12.<br><br> Please Show Work.
goldenfox [79]
These are the steps for transforming y=1/x to y=1/4x -12:

Step 1: Compress the original function by 4 in x direction. This will yield,

y= 1/4x

Step 2: The resulting function in step 1 is moved down by 12 spaces. The resulting function will be;

y= 1/4x -12

Which number lines have points that represent additive inverses? Check all that apply.
jeka94
<h3>2 Answers: B and D</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

Choice B is one answer because -2 and 2 are additive inverses that add to -2+2 = 0

Choice D is a similar story. We have -5+5 = 0

In general, if x is some number then -x is its additive inverse. So we can say x+(-x) = 0 or -x+x = 0. In short, additive inverses add to 0.
