FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the end behavior of a polynomial function?

Back

The end behavior of a polynomial function describes how the function behaves as x approaches positive or negative infinity.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

How do you determine the end behavior of a polynomial function?

Back

To determine the end behavior, look at the leading term of the polynomial. The sign and degree of the leading term dictate the behavior as x approaches ±∞.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What does it mean if a polynomial has an odd degree and a positive leading coefficient?

Back

If a polynomial has an odd degree and a positive leading coefficient, the end behavior will be: as x → -∞, f(x) → -∞ and as x → +∞, f(x) → +∞.

Back

If a polynomial has an odd degree and a negative leading coefficient, the end behavior will be: as x → -∞, f(x) → +∞ and as x → +∞, f(x) → -∞.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What are the zeros of a polynomial function?

Back

The zeros of a polynomial function are the values of x for which f(x) = 0. They are the x-intercepts of the graph.
