Behaviour of Multiple Zeroes

• At a single zero, the curve cuts the x-axis, not tangent to it.
• At a zero of even multiplicity, the curve lies tangent to the x-axis without crossing it
• At a zero of odd multiplicity (≥ 3), the curve lies tangent to the x-axis and possesses
a point of inflection at this root, crossing over the x-axis.
