Find all real zeros and state their multiplicities of each p

Find all real zeros (and state their multiplicities) of each polynomial function.

f(x) = 8x3 + 6x2 - 27x

Solution

f(x) = 8x3 + 6x2 - 27x

for zeroes

8x3 + 6x2 - 27x=0

=>x( 8x2 + 6x - 27)=0

=> x =0 ,  8x2 + 6x - 27=0

=> x =0 ,  8x2 + 6x = 27

=> x =0 , x2 + (3/4)x = (27/8)

=> x =0 , x2 + (3/4)x + (3/8)2= (27/8)+ (3/8)2

=> x =0 , (x + (3/8))2= (27/8)+ (9/64)

=> x =0 , (x + (3/8))2= (225/64)

=> x =0 , (x + (3/8))= (-15/8) , (x + (3/8))= (15/8)

=> x =0 , x = (-18/8) , x = (12/8)

=> x =0 , x = (-9/4) , x = (3/2)

zeroes are x= (-9/4) ,0 , (3/2) with each having multiplicity 1
