In this lesson, we will use the above features in order to analyze and sketch graphs of polynomials. We will then use the sketch to find the polynomial's positive and negative intervals.

In this unit, we will use everything that we know about polynomials in order to analyze their graphical behavior. Specifically, we will find polynomials' zeros (i.e., x-intercepts) and analyze …

What are polynomial and other nonlinear graphs? In a polynomial function, the output of the function is based on a polynomial expression in which the input is raised to the second power …

Solve challenging problems that tackle the relationship between the features of a polynomial and its graph.

This topic covers: - Adding, subtracting, and multiplying polynomial expressions - Factoring polynomial expressions as the product of linear factors - Dividing polynomial expressions - …

Learn what the end behavior of a polynomial is, and how we can find it from the polynomial's equation. In this lesson, you will learn what the "end behavior" of a polynomial is and how to …

Let's look at the graph of a function that has the same zeros, but different multiplicities. For example, consider g (x) = (x 1) 2 (x 4) . Notice that for this function 1 is now a double zero, …

Understanding the zeros, positive and negative intervals, and end behavior of a polynomial can help us understand the shape of the graph and make predictions about the system it models.

Given the graph of a polynomial and looking at its x-intercepts, we can determine the factors the polynomial must have. Additionally, we can determine whether those factors are raised to an …

Analyze polynomial functions to determine how they behave as the input variable increases to positive infinity or decreases to negative infinity.
