Multiplicity

 in  function f(x) = (x – 3)4(x – 5)(x – 8)2, the zero 3 has multiplicity 4, 5 has multiplicity 1, and 8 has multiplicity 2 

Pascal's Triangle

array of numbers in which those at the ends of the rows are 1 & each of the others is the sum

Polynomial Function

is a function such as a quadratic, a cubic, a quadratic, and so on, involving only non-negative integer powers of x
