12. Example 1 Graph of a Polynomial Function Graph f(x) = –x 3 – 4x 2 + 5 by making a table of values. Answer:

13. Example 1 Graph of a Polynomial Function This is an odd degree polynomial with a negative leading coefficient, so f(x)  +  as x  –  and f(x)  –  as x  + . Notice that the graph intersects the x-axis at 3 points indicating that there are 3 real zeros. Graph f(x) = –x 3 – 4x 2 + 5 by making a table of values. Answer:

15. Concept

16. Example 2 Locate Zeros of a Function Determine consecutive values of x between which each real zero of the function f(x) = x 4 – x 3 – 4x 2 + 1 is located. Then draw the graph. Make a table of values. Since f(x) is a 4th degree polynomial function, it will have 0, 2, or 4 real zeros.

17. Example 2 Locate Zeros of a Function Look at the values of f(x) to locate the zeros. Then use the points to sketch the graph of the function. There are zeros between x = –2 and –1, x = –1 and 0, x = 0 and 1, and x = 2 and 3. Answer:

18. Example 2 A.x = –1 and x = 0 B.x = –1 and x = 0, x = 0 and x = 1, x = 3 and x = 4 C.x = –1 and x = 0, x = 3 and x = 4 D.x = –1 and x = 0, x = 0 and x = 1, x = 2 and x = 3 Determine consecutive values of x between which each real zero of the function f(x) = x 3 – 4x 2 + 2 is located.

19. Example 3 Maximum and Minimum Points Graph f(x) = x 3 – 3x 2 + 5. Estimate the x-coordinates at which the relative maxima and relative minima occur. Make a table of values and graph the function.

20. Example 3 Maximum and Minimum Points Answer: The value of f(x) at x = 0 is greater than the surrounding points, so there must be a relative maximum near x = 0. The value of f(x) at x = 2 is less than the surrounding points, so there must be a relative minimum near x = 2.

21. Example 3 Maximum and Minimum Points Check:You can use a graphing calculator to find the relative maximum and relative minimum of a function and confirm your estimate. Enter y = x 3 – 3x 2 + 5 in the Y= list and graph the function. Use the CALC menu to find each maximum and minimum. When selecting the left bound, move the cursor to the left of the maximum or minimum. When selecting the right bound, move the cursor to the right of the maximum or minimum.

22. Example 3 Maximum and Minimum Points The estimates for a relative maximum near x = 0 and a relative minimum near x = 2 are accurate. Press twice. ENTER

23. Example 3 A.relative minimum: x = 0 relative maximum: x = –2 B.relative minimum: x = –2 relative maximum: x = 0 C.relative minimum: x = –3 relative maximum: x = 1 D.relative minimum: x = 0 relative maximum: x = 2 Consider the graph of f(x) = x 3 + 3x 2 + 2. Estimate the x-coordinates at which the relative maximum and relative minimum occur.

24. Example 4 Graph a Polynomial Model A. HEALTH The weight w, in pounds, of a patient during a 7-week illness is modeled by the function w(n) = 0.1n 3 – 0.6n 2 + 110, where n is the number of weeks since the patient became ill. Graph the equation. Make a table of values for weeks 0 through 7. Plot the points and connect with a smooth curve.

25. Example 4 Graph a Polynomial Model Answer:

26. Example 4 Graph a Polynomial Model B. Describe the turning points of the graph and its end behavior. Answer: There is a relative minimum at week 4. w(n) → ∞ as n → ∞.

27. Example 4 Graph a Polynomial Model C. What trends in the patient’s weight does the graph suggest? Answer: The patient lost weight for each of 4 weeks after becoming ill. After 4 weeks, the patient gained weight and continues to gain weight.

28. Example 4 Graph a Polynomial Model D. Is it reasonable to assume the trend will continue indefinitely? Answer: The trend may continue for a few weeks, but it is unlikely that the patient’s weight will rise indefinitely.

29. Example 4 A. WEATHER The rainfall r, in inches per month, in a Midwestern town during a 7-month period is modeled by the function r(m) = 0.01m 3 – 0.18m 2 + 0.67m + 3.23, where m is the number of months after March 1. Graph the equation. A.B. C.D.
