Answer:
68m squared or the first option
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) 8, multiplicity 2; 8, multiplicity 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that a is a zero of the polynomial f(x) if f(a)=0 and has multiplicity n if the termn (x-a) is n times in the factorization of f(x).
We have that

Observe that
1. 
and (x+8) appear two times in the factorization of f(x). Then -8 is a zero of f(x) with multiplicity 2.
2. 
and and (x - 8) appear three times in the factorization of f(x). Then 8 is a zero of f(x) with multiplicity 3.
Since f(x) has degree 5 and the sum of the multiplicities is 5 then f(x) hasn't more zeros.
I think the answer is -2,I guess?
Square roots are most often written using a radical sign, like this, . But there is another way to represent the taking of a root. You can use rational exponents instead of a radical. A rational exponent is an exponent that is a fraction. For example, can be written as .
Can’t imagine raising a number to a rational exponent? They may be hard to get used to, but rational exponents can actually help simplify some problems. Let’s explore the relationship between rational (fractional) exponents and radicals.
