Polynomial Functions

A polynomial function is a function such as a


quadratic, a cubic, a quartic, and so on,
involving only non-negative integer powers of .
We can give a general defintion of a
polynomial, and define its degree.

y = 2x³ - 7x ²- 7x + 12

y = 2x³ - 7x ²- 7x + 12
y = (2x + 3)(x - 1)(x -

y = 2x³ - 7x ²- 7x + 12
y = (2x + 3)(x - 1)(x -

x = -3/2, 1, 4
y = 2x³ - 7x ²- 7x + 12
y = (2x + 3)(x - 1)(x -
4)
x = -3/2, 1, 4
y = 12
y = 2x³ - 7x ²- 7x + 12
y = 2x³ - 7x ²- 7x + 12
y = - x⁵+ 3x⁴+ x³ - 7x² + 4

y = - x⁵+ 3x⁴+ x³ - 7x² + 4
y = - (x + 1)² (x - 1) (x - 2)

y = x⁴ -7x² + 6x
;)
y = x⁴ -7x² + 6x
y = x(x+3)(x-1)(x-2)
y = x⁴ -7x² + 6x
y = x(x+3)(x-1)(x-2)
x = 0, -3, 1, 2
y = x⁴ -7x² + 6x
y = x(x+3)(x-1)(x-2)

Graph it.

Summarize your findings from the four cases
above. What do you observe if:
1. the degree of the polynomial is odd and the leading
coefficient is positive?
2. the degree of the polynomial is odd and the leading
coefficient is negative?
3. the degree of the polynomial is even and the leading
coefficient is positive?
4. the degree of the polynomial is even and the leading
coefficient is negative?
