THE GRAPH OF P(X)
1. The graph of any type of function
must pass the vertical line test.
2. Every polynomial function with real
coefficients has the set of real
numbers as its domain; hence it is
continuous function. This means
that the graph of a polynomial
THE GRAPH OF P(X)
3. A polynomial equation of the nth

degree cannot have more than n
roots. This only means that the
graph cannot intersect the x-axis
more than n times.
4. A graph of a polynomial function
has only smooth, rounded turns. A

ZEROS OF POLYNOMIAL FUNCTION
It can be shown that for a polynomial
function of degree n, the following statements
are true:
 The function has, at most, n real zeros.
 The graph has, at most, n – 1 turning points.
 Turning points (relative maximum or relative
minimum) are points at which the graph
changes from increasing to decreasing or
vice versa.
ZEROS OF POLYNOMIAL FUNCTION
The zeros of a polynomial
function are the values of x which
make f(x) = 0. These values are
the roots, or solutions of the
polynomial equation when y = 0.
All real roots are the x-intercepts
of the graph.
MULTIPLICITIES OF ZEROES
The multiplicity of a zero is the number
of times the real root of a polynomial
functions results in . Suppose r is a zero of
even multiplicity, then, the graph touches
the x-axis at r and bounces at r or is
tangent to point (r, 0). Suppose r is a zero of
odd multiplicity. Then the graph crosses the
x-axis at r. Regardless of whether a
multiplicity is even or odd, the graph tends
BEHAVIOR OF POLYNOMIAL FUNCTIONS
The behavior of the graph of a
function to the far left and far right is
called its end behavior. Although the
graph of a polynomial function may
have intervals where it increases or
decreases, the graph will eventually
rise or fall without bound as it moves
far to the left or far to the right.
How can we determine the end
behavior of a polynomial function?
Using the table on the next page,
observe how the end behavior of the
graph changes in relation to the
leading coefficient and degree of the
polynomial
functions.
