Question

2 a) Consider the polynomial functions 

f(x)=-(x-1)^2(x-3)(x+1) , answer the followings

(i) Describe the End Behavior using Limit Notation.
(ii) List each real zero and its multiplicity.
(iii) Determine whether the graph crosses or touches the x-axis at each x-intercept.
(iv) Determine the behavior of the graph near each x-intercept (zero).
(v) Determine maximum number of turning point
Using above information graph the function.
b) Using rational zeros theorem, find all the real zeros of f(x)=x^4-4x^3+9x^2-20x+20
and write in factor form.

c) Solve the inequality f(x)=x^3+x^2 < 4x+4

 and write the solution set in interval notation.
