\

To find the real zeros of the function, set f(x) equal to zero and solve for x.

\

The polynomial function \"\".

\

\"\"                                  (Set f(x) equal to zero)

\

\"\"                                        (Add \"\" to each side)

\

\"\"                                         (Take square root to each side)

\

So, the real zeros are \"\".\"\"

\

The real zeros are \"\".

\

\"\"

\

The \"\" degree of polynomial function " f " has " n " real zeros and the graph of  " f " has, at most " \"\" " turning points.

\

The polynomial function \"\".

\

The degree of polynomial function \"\" is 2.

\

Since the graph of \"\" has \"\" turning point.\"\"

\

The factor \"\", k > 1, yields a repeated zero x = a of multiplicity k.

\

If k is odd, the graph crosses the x - axis at x = a.

\

The polynomial function \"\".

\

The factor form of polynomial function \"\".

\

The factor \"\", k = 1, Since the multiplicity is odd.\"\"

\

The odd multiplicity and number of turning points 1.
