Question 1024726: The graph of (x)=-(x+3)^2(x-5)^3 has x-intercepts at x=-3 and x=5.
At and immediately surrounding the point x=-3, the graph resembles the graph of what function?
Choose one.
A. y=x
B. y=x^2
C. y=x^3 Answer by MathLover1(20850) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the root is repeated twice, so it has a multiplicity of
the root is repeated three times, so it has a multiplicity of
multiplicity of means the function will behave like near the root
and multiplicity of means the function will behave like near the root
so, your answer is B.
