    This document provides an introduction to polynomial functions. It defines polynomial functions as functions that can be written as a sum of terms involving variables raised to nonnegative integer powers. The document discusses identifying polynomial functions, evaluating them, and determining their domains and ranges. It provides examples of determining the domain and range of specific polynomial functions. The key points are that polynomial functions are written in standard form by descending variable powers and that their domains are all real numbers while their ranges depend on the degree and leading term.

    Lesson 8.

    Introduction to Polynomial
    Functions
    Learning Competency

    At the end of the lesson, the learners should be able


    to illustrate polynomial functions. (M10AL-Ila-1).
    Objectives

    At the end of this lesson, the learners should be able to


    do the following:

    ● Properly identify polynomial functions.


    ● Correctly evaluate a polynomial function at a
    specified value of the variable.
    ● Correctly find the domain and range of a
    polynomial function.
    In the previous lessons, you have
    learned that real life situations
    can be illustrated using
    functions.
    For instance, the length of an
    object can be illustrated using a
    linear function while the area of
    a plane figure such as a circle or
    a rectangle can be presented
    using a quadratic function.
    How about if you are going to
    illustrate a volume or a surface
    area? What kind of function are
    you going to use?
    In this scenario, you can use more complex kind of functions,
    such as a cubic function. The different kinds of functions that
    you can use in illustrating real life situations are called
    polynomial functions.

    In this lesson, you will learn about polynomial functions and


    how it is used in real life situations.

    Limiting Behavior of Polynomials

    The limiting behavior of a polynomial function describes what


    happens to the function as approaches positive or negative
    infinity. It is determined by the parity (the property of being
    odd or even) of the degree of the polynomial, as well as the
    sign of its leading term.

    Key Points

    ● A polynomial function is a function that can be written in


    the form , where (the highest exponent of the variable) is
    a nonnegative integer known as the degree of the
    polynomial and , , …, (the coefficients of the variable) are
    real numbers.
    o The term , where is the leading coefficient, is the
    leading term of the polynomial function while is the
    constant term.
    Key Points

    ● A polynomial function is in standard form if it is written


    in descending powers of the independent variable.

    ● The domain of a polynomial function is the set of


    admissible -values of the polynomial function. The
    domain of any polynomial function is the set of real
    numbers.
    Key Points

    ● The range of a polynomial function is the set of


    admissible -values of the polynomial function. While the
    domain of any polynomial function is the set of real
    numbers, the range depends on the degree and the sign
    of the leading coefficient.
