    Multiplicity is how many times a root repeats

    factor

    x (x²-8x+16)

    what times wat = 16 and adds to - 8

    -4 and - 4

    x (x-4) (x-4)

    x (x-4) ²

    set to zero

    x=0

    x-4=0

    x=4

    roots are 0 ad 4

    4 repeats 2 times, so has a multiplicty of 2

    so

    roots are 0, and 4 multiplicity 2
