Learn to solve and sketch graphs of polynomial functions, find real zeros, use long and short division, and write polynomials from zeros. Understand the relevance in real-world applications and equivalent statements. Practice graph sketching based on multiplicity of zeros and finding polynomial functions from given zeros.
E N D
Objective • Long Division of Polynomials • Short Division of Polynomials • Write the Polynomial when given the zeros.
Relevance • Learn how to evaluate data from real world applications that fit into a quadratic model.
Equivalent Statements: • x = a is a zero of the function f. • x = a is a solution of the polynomial equation f(x)=0. • (x-a) is a factor of the polynomial f(x) • (a, 0) is an x-intercept of the graph of f
Sketch the graph: End behavior: Multiplicity of 2. Touches. Through these Points.
Multiplicity - repeated zero – Means………….. • If it occurs an odd number of times, the graph crosses the x-axis at the zero. • If it occurs an even number of times, the graph will just touch the x-axis at the zero.
Sketch the graph: 1st Term would be End Behavior: Mult. of 3 Goes Through Mult. Of 2 Touches x y 1 3
Sketch the graph: 1st Term would be End Behavior: Both have a multiplicity of 2. Just Touch! x y -1 -1
