Mrs. Rivas International Studies Charter School. Turning Points of Polynomial Functions Another important characteristic of graphs of polynomial function is that they have turning points corresponding to local maximum and minimum values

Mrs. Rivas International Studies Charter School. Turning Points of Polynomial Functions at most n-1 1.The graph of every polynomial function of degree n, then the graph has at most n-1 turning points. distinct real zerosexactlyn-1 2.If a polynomial function has n distinct real zeros, then has exactly n-1 turning points
