Algebra.Com's Answer #63424 by rapaljer(4671)![]() ![]() 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( " \n" ); document.write( " \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( " \n" ); document.write( " \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( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "x=3 is of multiplicity 2, since the power of the (x-3) factor is 2.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "R^2 Retired from SCC \n" ); document.write( " |
