Does the zero cut or touch?

If the exponent is EVEN the zero TOUCHES

If the exponent is ODD the zero CUTS (goes through)

Examples

Example

• Sketch the graph of the equation y = -x(x-1)2

Example

• Sketch the graph of the equation f(x) = (x + 1)(x – 2)(x – 4)

Example

• Sketch the graph of the equation y = -(x + 3)(x + 2)(x – 1)3

Example• Sketch the graph of the equation with a double root at

–2, a single root at 5, a triple root at 0 and a double root at 2. Assume the leading coefficient is negative one. Write the equation of the function that describes the graph.

Example• Write the equation for the polynomial graph shown.

Assume that all even multiplicities are 2 and all odd multiplicities are 3
