A polynomial function has a root of -6 with multiplicity 3 and a root of 2 with multiplicity 4 if the function has a negative leading coefficient and is of odd degree which could be the graph of the function

Answer:

See graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p(x) be the polynomial.

Since -6 is a root with multiplicity 3, [tex](x+6)^3[/tex] is a factor of p(x).

Since 2 is a root with multiplicity 4, [tex](x-2)^4[/tex] is a factor of p(x).

This implies that:

[tex]p(x)=a(x+6)^3(x-2)^4[/tex]

Since a<0, and the degree of the polynomial is odd(4+3=7), the graph falls on the left and also falls to the right.

In other words, the graph approaches positive infinity on the left an negative infinity on the right.
