Mulitpilicty is how many times a root repeats
factor
factor x first
x(2x^2+x-1)
using math
(x)(x+1)(2x-1)
no roots repeat
if it is equal to 0 then the roots are
0 multiplicty 1
-1 multiplicty 1
1/2 multiplicty 1
65÷455= 7
Hope this helps!
Notice the following pattern:
2 - 0 = 2
6 - 2 = 4
12 - 6 = 6
20 - 12 = 8
It's reasonable to assume that consecutive terms in the sequence differ by increasing multiples of 2, so that for the next number (call it x) we expect to see
x - 20 = 10 ==> x = 30
and for the number after that (call it y) we would see
y - x = y - 30 = 12 ==> y = 42
