Question 865531: For the polynomial function ƒ(x) = (2 − x)(x + 1)(x − 3)(x + 5), find the zeros. Then determine the multiplicity at each zero and state whether the graph displays the behavior of a touch or a cross at each intercept.
A. x = −5, cross; x = −1, cross; x = 2, cross; x = 3, cross
B. x = −5, cross; x = −1, cross; x = 2, touch; x = 3, touch
C. x = −5, cross; x = −1, touch; x = 2, touch; x = 3, touch
D. x = −5, cross; x = −1, cross; x = 2, cross; x = 3, touch
