Okay, here we have this:

We need to find the zeros and it's multiplicity of the following polynomial:

[tex]f(x)=5x(x-4)(x+9)^2(x+3)[/tex]

So, considering that in a function of the following form:

[tex]f(x)=a\cdot(x-x_0)^{m_0}(x-x_1)^{m_1}\cdot\ldots\cdot(x-x_n)^{m_n}[/tex]

The zeros will be: x₀, x₁, ..., xn

The multiplicities are:

[tex]m_0,^{}m_1,\ldots,\text{ }m_n[/tex]

In this case we obtain that the zeros with their respectives multiplicities are:

Zeros of multiplicity one: 0, 4, -3

Zeros of multiplicity two: -9
