Graphing Polynomial Functions with Repeated Factors :
The behavior of polynomial functions graphs near a repeated factor is different than what we expect from polynomial functions with terms in sequential degrees. In polynomial functions with repeated factors, the end behavior and x-intercepts will always be the same as the normal polynomial functions. However, the graph will behave differently as it approaches one of the x-intercepts.
