Question

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question :)

Answer 1

The graph is touching the x-axis at x= 2 and is turning away.

When a graph exhibit such a behavior at a root, we say that the multiplicity of the root is 2. So the roots of the polynomial are x = 2 and x = 2. The factors of the polynomial are (x - 2) and (x - 2)

The polynomial thus can be written as product of its factors as (x-2)(x-2)

So the correct answer to this question is option B
