Transcribed Image Text:### Polynomial Analysis and Graphing Exercise
**Problem Statement:**
Let \( p(x) = -3(x - 2)^2(x + 3)(x + 1)^3 \).
**Tasks:**
**2a)** Compute the \( y \)-intercept of \( p \).
**2b)** List the zeros of \( p \) and determine their multiplicity.
**2c)** Determine the end behavior of \( p \).
**2d)** Use your calculator to sketch the graph of \( p \). Make sure that your picture displays the information gathered in parts a, b, and c.
---
*Note:* Ensure your graph accurately reflects the calculated intercepts, zeros, and end behavior for a thorough understanding of \( p(x) \).
