*AA C&C Unit 4 Test REVIEW Part 2

Front

What is an interval of decrease on a graph?

Back

An interval of decrease on a graph is a range of x-values where the function's output (y-values) decreases as x increases.

Front

How do you identify the lowest relative minimum on a graph?

Back

The lowest relative minimum is the point on the graph where the function value is lower than the values of the function at nearby points.

Front

What is a turning point in a function?

Back

A turning point is a point where the function changes direction from increasing to decreasing or vice versa.

Front

What is the maximum number of turning points for a polynomial function of degree n?

Back

The maximum number of turning points for a polynomial function of degree n is n - 1.

Front

How do you determine the maximum number of real zeros for a polynomial function?

Back

The maximum number of real zeros for a polynomial function is equal to its degree.

Front

What is a relative maximum on a graph?

Back

A relative maximum is a point where the function value is higher than the values of the function at nearby points.

Front

What does the notation (a, b) represent in interval notation?

Back

In interval notation, (a, b) represents an open interval that includes all numbers between a and b, but not a and b themselves.

Front

What is the significance of the leading coefficient in a polynomial function?

Back

The leading coefficient determines the end behavior of the polynomial function and influences the number of turning points.

Front

How can you estimate the lowest relative minimum from a graph?

Back

You can estimate the lowest relative minimum by visually identifying the lowest point on the graph and rounding to the nearest whole number.

Front

What is the difference between a relative maximum and an absolute maximum?

Back

A relative maximum is the highest point in a specific interval, while an absolute maximum is the highest point over the entire domain of the function.
