FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a polynomial function?

Back

A polynomial function is a mathematical expression involving a sum of powers in one or more variables multiplied by coefficients. The general form is p(x) = a_n*x^n + a_(n-1)*x^(n-1) + ... + a_1*x + a_0, where a_n, a_(n-1), ..., a_0 are constants and n is a non-negative integer.

Front

What are the zeros of a polynomial?

Back

The zeros of a polynomial are the values of x for which the polynomial function p(x) equals zero. They are also known as the roots of the polynomial.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you find the zeros of a polynomial given its factors?

Back

To find the zeros of a polynomial given its factors, set each factor equal to zero and solve for x. For example, if the factors are (x + 5)(x - 6)(x - 7), set x + 5 = 0, x - 6 = 0, and x - 7 = 0.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the relationship between the factors and the zeros of a polynomial?

Back

The zeros of a polynomial correspond to the values of x that make each factor equal to zero. Each factor (x - r) contributes a zero at x = r.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the standard form of a polynomial?

Back

The standard form of a polynomial is expressed as p(x) = a_n*x^n + a_(n-1)*x^(n-1) + ... + a_1*x + a_0, where the terms are arranged in descending order of the degree.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean to simplify a square root of a negative number?

Back

Simplifying a square root of a negative number involves using the imaginary unit 'i', where i = √(-1). For example, √(-64) simplifies to 8i.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the significance of relative minimum in a polynomial graph?

Back

A relative minimum is a point on the graph of a polynomial where the function value is lower than the values of the function at nearby points. It indicates a local low point in the graph.
