Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
(x-0)(x-4)^2=
x(x^2-8x+16)=0
x=0, 4, 4 as the 3 zeroes
f(5)=5
only way to get f(5) = 30 is change the zeroes, by adding a constant term
x^3 -8x^2 + 16x =-25
x^3 -8x^2 +16x +25=0
f(5) = 125 - 200 + 80 +25 = 30
but the zeroes are no longer 0, 4 and 4
f(-1) =0 one zero is now -1
the cubic polynomial factors into
(x+1)(x^2-9x+25)
x=-1 and
x=-18/2 + or - (1/2)sqr(81-100) =-9 + or - (i/2)sqr19
the other 2 zeroes are now imaginary
