Answer:

-5, multiplicity 3; +9, multiplicity 2; -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The roots of f(x) are those values of x that make the factors be zero. For a factor of x-a, the root is x=a, because a-a=0. If the factor appears n times, then the root has multiplicity n.

f(x) = (x+5)^3(x-9)^2(x+1) has roots ...

-5 with multiplicity 3
+9 with multiplicity 2
-1

Two number cubes each have sides that are labeled 1 to 6. Isis rolls the 2 number cubes. What is the probability that the sum of

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

1/12 or 0.0833...

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 36 different possible outcomes for rolling the number cubes. To get a sum of 4 you would need to roll a 1 and 3 (2 possibilities, each cube could roll a 1 or a 3) or a 2 and a 2 (1 possibility, each has to roll the same number). Since there is no 0 or negative numbers, these are your only possibilities. 3 out of 36 possibilities is also equivalent to a 1/12 chance.
