Section 5. 2 – Polynomials, Linear Factors, and Zeros WHY? ? ? A storage

Section 5. 2 – Polynomials, Linear Factors, and Zeros WHY? ? ? A storage company needs to design a new storage box that has twice the volume of its largest box. Its largest box is 5 feet long, 4 feet wide, and 3 feet high. The new box must be formed by increasing each dimension by the same amount. Find the increase in each dimension.

Section 5. 2 – Polynomials, Linear Factors, and Zeros You can write the polynomial function in Problem 3 in factored form as f(x) = (x + 2)(x – 3) and g(x) = (x+2)2(x – 2)(x – 3). In g(x) the repeated linear factor x + 2 makes -2 a multiple zero. Since the linear factor x + 2 appears twice, you can say that -2 is a zero of multiplicity 2.
