Vocabulary • Polynomial Function = a function in the form: where , exponents are whole #’s, and coefficients are real. • Standard Form = terms are written in descending order of exponents. • Degree = the highest exponent.
Decide whether the function is a polynomial function. If so, write it in standard form and state its degree, type, and leading coefficient.
Identify the real zeros of a polynomial function and their multiplicity. • If a polynomial is factored completely, it is easy to solve the question f(x) = 0 using the zero-product property. Example: Find the real zeros of the function:
Real Zeros • For the polynomial: • 7 is a zero of multiplicity 1 because the exponent on the factor of x – 7 is 1, • -3 is a zero of multiplicity 2 because the exponent on the factor of x + 3 is 2. List each real zero and its multiplicity.
Form a polynomial whose real zeros and degree are given. 1.) Zeros: -3, 0, 4; degree 3 2.) Zeros: -1, multiplicity 1; 3, multiplicity 2; degree 3
Graphs of a polynomial function • Graphs are smooth (no corners) and continuous (no breaks). • Determine which graphs are not polynomials.
Graphs of a polynomial function – turning points. • If f is a polynomial function of degree n, then f has at most n – 1 turning points.
End Behaviors of a Polynomial Function • Degree: Even • Leading Coefficient: Negative • Degree: Even • Leading Coefficient: Positive
End Behaviors of a Polynomial Function Degree: Odd Leading Coefficient: Positive • Degree: Odd • Leading Coefficient: Negative
Do Now: Which of the graphs could be f(x) = x4 + 5x3 + 5x2 – 5x – 3? • Hint: Identify the y-intercept to help eliminate options.
