question 494

Multiple Choice

Find the zeros for the polynomial function and give the multiplicity for each zero. State whether the graph crosses
the x-axis or touches the x-axis and turns around, at each zero.
-Touches the $x$ -axis at 0 and crosses the $x$ -axis at 2 ; lies below the $x$ -axis between 0 and 2 .

• A) \(f ( x ) = x ^ { 3 } - 2 x ^ { 2 }\)
• B) \(f ( x ) = x ^ { 3 } + 2 x ^ { 2 }\)
• C) \(f ( x ) = - x ^ { 3 } + 2 x ^ { 2 }\)
• D) \(f ( x ) = - x ^ { 3 } - 2 x ^ { 2 }\)
