The number of times a given factor appears in the factored form of the equation of a polynomial is called the multiplicity. The zero associated with this factor, x=2, has multiplicity 2 because the factor (x−2) occurs twice. The x-intercept x=−1 is the repeated solution of factor (x+1)3=0 ( x + 1 ) 3 = 0
