Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, line needs to be parallel. Therefore, it should have the same slope.

y = -2x + b

Plugin the points and solve for y-intercept

(-1,7)

7 = -2(-1) + b

7 = 2 + b

-2 -2

5 = b

Plug it all in

y = -2x +5

What are the zeros of this polynomial and state their multiplicity at each <br> y=(x-5)(x+2)^2

N76 [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros of a polynomial are the x-intercepts of the function. To find them, we factor the polynomial and set each factor equal to 0.

This polynomial is already factored so set each to 0 and solve for x.

$x-5=0\\x=5\\(x+2)^{2}=0 \\(x+2)=0\\x=-2$

This means x=-2, 5. Each zero or root has a multiplicity - the number of times the factor occurs. This is also known as the exponent of the factor expression.

(x+5) occurs once since it has exponent 1.

$(x+2)^{2}$ occurs twoce since it has exponent 2.

x=5 mult. 1, x=-2 mult. 2
