Question

q.2 find the roots of factored polynomials pvm
find the roots of the factored polynomial.
$(x + 6)^2$
write your answer as a list of values separated by commas.
x =
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Set the factor to zero

To find the roots of the polynomial \((x + 6)^2\), we set each factor equal to zero. Since the factor is \((x + 6)\) (and it's squared, but we still solve \(x + 6 = 0\)).
\(x + 6 = 0\)

Step2: Solve for x

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation \(x + 6 = 0\).
\(x = -6\) (This is a repeated root, but we list it as is for the root of the factored polynomial)

Answer:

-6
