Continuous Function o A function is continuous if its graph can be drawn with a pencil without lifting the pencil from the paper. Continuous Not Continuous
Polynomial Function o Polynomial Functions have continuous graphs with smooth rounded turns. o Written: o Example:
Explore using graphing Calculator Describe graph as S or W shaped. Function Degree # of U turns
Generalizations? o The number of turns is one less than the degree. o Even degree → “W” Shape o Odd degree → “S” Shape
Describe the Shape and Number of Turns.
Let’s explore some more…. we might need to revise our generalization. o Take a look at the following graph and tell me if your conjecture is correct.
Lead Coefficient Test When n is odd Lead Coefficient is Positive: (an >0), the graph falls to the left and rises to the right Lead Coefficient is Negative: (an <0), the graph rises to the left and falls to the right
Lead Coefficient Test When n is even Lead Coefficient is Positive: (an >0), the graph rises to the left and rises to the right Lead Coefficient is Negative: (an <0), the graph falls to the left and falls to the right
Leading Coefficient: an End Behavior - a>0 a<0 left right n - even n - odd

A polynomial function (f) of degree n , the following are true o The function has at most n real zeros o The graph has at most (n-1) relative extrema (relative max/min)
Local Max / Min (in terms of y) Increasing / Decreasing (in terms of x)
Local Max / Min (in terms of y) Increasing / Decreasing (in terms of x)
Approximate any local maxima or minima to the nearest tenth. Find the intervals over which the function is increasing and decreasing.
