Which of the following describes the roots of the polynomial function f (x) = (x + 2) squared (x minus 4) (x + 1) cubed? –2 with multiplicity 2, 4 with multiplicity 1, and –1 with multiplicity 3
–2 with multiplicity 3, 4 with multiplicity 2, and –1 with multiplicity 4
2 with multiplicity 2, –4 with multiplicity 1, and 1 with multiplicity 3
2 with multiplicity 3, –4 with multiplicity 2, and 1 with multiplicity 4

A

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2=0

x+2-2=0-2

x=-2.....(x+2) was squared...exponent of 2...multiplicity of 2

x-4=0

x-4+4=0+4

x=4....(x-4) has no visible exponent which means it is essentially to the power of 1...multiplicity of 1

x+1=0

x+1-1=0-1

x=-1....(x+1) was cubed...exponent was 3...multiplicity of 3

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

it’s supposed to be -4+45=41
