You can put this solution on YOUR website!
A double root occurs when the power of the factor that gives you the root is 2. \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a) 8y^2 +1 = 6y
\n" ); document.write( " \"8y%5E2+-+6y+%2B1%29+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%284y-1%29%282y-1%29=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "No double roots, since the powers of the factors are not 2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "b) x^4-25x^2 =0
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%28x%5E2+-25%29+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%28x-5%29%28x%2B5%29+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "x=0 is of multiplicity 2, since the power of the x factor is 2.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c)(X-3)^3-(x-3)^2= 0
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-3%29%5E2%28x-3+-+1%29+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x-3%29%5E2%28x-4%29+=+0\"
\n" ); document.write( "x=3 is of multiplicity 2, since the power of the (x-3) factor is 2.\r
