Find the zeros of the polynomial function and state the multiplicity of each. f(x) = 3(x + 9)2(x - 9)3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

From the expression, we observe that has a multiplicity of 2 and has a multiplicity of 3.

So, for the first factor, there's one number that makes such factor equal to zero, and that is -9, because

We know that this factor has a multiplicity of 2, so its zeros are -9 and -9.

We do the same process for

Its multiplicity is 3, so the zeros are 9, 9 and 9.

Therefore, all the zeros of the polynomial function are

Triangle STU is not similar to Triangle VWU

Step-by-step explanation:

For two triangles to be similar, they both should have the same angle measures. To find out if they have the same angle measures, we have to solve for the unknown angles. Remember, a triangle is worth 180°.

Triangle STU:

Triangle VWU:

As you can see, the angles don't have the same angle measures. Thus, they are not similar.
