1. Graph Polynomials Effect of Multiplicity on a graph

2. Multiplicity the graph curves as it crosses the x-axis.
Multiplicity of a root is
the number of times a root is a factor of a function.
When a real root is singular
the graph passes through the x-axis
When a real root has even multiplicity
the graph touches the x-axis but does NOT cross it.
When a real root has odd multiplicity (3 or higher)
the graph curves as it crosses the x-axis.
The graph flattens as it approaches the x-axis when the multiplicity is higher.

3. Multiplicity--Factor and solve the following polynomial
The root -3 has a
multiplicity of 2.
The graph
touches at (-3, 0).
The root 0 has a
multiplicity of 3
The graph
curves at (0, 0).
