How does the multiplicity of a zero determine the behavior of the graph at that zero?

1 answer:

8 0

If the graph crosses the x-axis and appears almost linear at the intercept, it is a single zero. If the graph touches the x-axis and bounces off of the axis, it is a zero with even multiplicity. If the graph crosses the x-axis at a zero, it is a zero with odd multiplicity. The sum of the multiplicities is the degree

Find the length of the diagonal BD in the quadrilateral ABCD shown in the coordinate plane ?

Leno4ka [110]

bearing in mind B is at (4,3) and D is at (-2,-4).

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ B(\stackrel{x_1}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{3})\qquad D(\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-4})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ BD=\sqrt{(-2-4)^2+(-4-3)^2}\implies BD=\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-7)^2} \\\\\\ BD=\sqrt{36+49}\implies BD=\sqrt{85}$
