Analyze Polynomial Graphs

Classify by number of terms:
3x³ – 6x

• Monomial
• Binomial
• Trinomial
• 4-Term Polynomial

What is the constant of this polynomial?

• (-∞, ∞)

Identify the end behavior:

• The end behavior of the graph is x →∞, y→∞ and x→∞, y→⁻∞
• The end behavior of the graph is x →∞, y→∞ and x→⁻∞, y→∞
• The end behavior of the graph is x →∞, y→∞ and x→⁻∞, y→0
• The end behavior of the graph is x →∞,y→∞and x→⁻∞, y→⁻∞

Identify the decreasing interval:

• (0, 4)
• (-1, 1)
• (∞, -1) U (1, -∞)
• (-∞, -1) U (1, ∞)

What is the range?
