Detailed Solution

Given that they have multiple roots

  Let fx=x4-6x3+13x2-24x+36 Diff. w.r.to 'x' f'x=4x3-8x2+26x-24 By trial and error method  f'3=433-1832+263-24             =186-186=0 Now f3=34-633+1332-243+36             =234-234=0 

x-3 is a factor of fx and f'x then then 3 is a multiple root of order 2 of f(x) By synthetic division
