Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given function
Formula used:
The multiplicity of each zero is odd
Calculation:
It can be shown that for a polynomial function f of degree n, the following statements are true.
(1) The function has at most n real zeroes
(2) The graph of f has, at most n-1 turning points.
The degree of the given polynomial function is 3. So, there will be at most two turning points and multiplicity of each zero is odd.
Hence, the multiplicity is odd and there are two turning points.
