Section 3-7 Investigating Graphs of Polynomial Functions Objectives: Use properties of end behavior to analyze, describe, and graph polynomial functions Identify and use maxima and minima of polynomial functions to solve problems

Investigating Graphs of Polynomial Functions Polynomial functions are classified by their degree. The graphs of polynomial functions are classified by the degree of the polynomial Each graph, based on the degree, has a distinctive shape and characteristics

Investigating Graphs of Polynomial Functions

End Behavior End behavior is a description of the values of the function as x approaches infinity (x+∞) or negative infinity (x-∞). The degree and leading coefficient of a polynomial function determine its end behavior. It is helpful when you are graphing a polynomial function to know about the end behavior of the function

End Behavior

Identify the leading coefficient, degree, and end behavior Q(x) = –x 4 + 6x 3 – x + 9 P(x) = 2x 5 + 6x 4 – x + 4

Identify whether the function graphed has an odd or even degree and a positive or negative leading coefficient

Investigating Graphs of Polynomial Functions Now that you have studied factoring, solving polynomial equations, and end behavior, you can graph a polynomial function

Graph the Function f(x) = x 3 + 4x 2 + x – 6

Graph the Function f(x) = x 3 – 2x 2 – 5x + 6

Turning Points A turning point is where a graph changes from increasing to decreasing or from decreasing to increasing A turning point corresponds to a local maximum or local minimum Local Maximum: y-coordinate of turning point if the graph is opening down i.e. the turning point is higher than all nearby points on the graph) Local Minimum: y-coordinate of turning point if the graph is opening open (i.e. the turning point is lower than all nearby points on the graph)

Investigating Graphs of Polynomial Functions A polynomial function of degree n has at most n – 1 turning points and at most n x-intercepts If the function has n distinct roots, then it has exactly n – 1 turning points and exactly n x-intercepts You can use a graphing calculator to graph and estimate maximum and minimum values

Steps on the Graphing Calculator Step 1 – Graph the function See if the graph has a local maximum or minimum Step 2 - Find the maximum Press 2 nd TRACE (CALC) to access the CALC Menu. Choose 4:maximum Step 3 – Find the minimum Press 2 nd TRACE (CALC) to access the CALC Menu Choose 3:minimum

Determine Maxima and Minima with a Calculator Graph f(x) = 2x 3 – 18x + 1 on a calculator and estimate the local maxima and minima

Determine Maxima and Minima with a Calculator Graph g(x) = x 3 – 2x – 3 on a calculator and estimate the local maxima and minima
