Introduction to Polynomial Functions

• 0

• 1

• 2

• 3

Classify the function:

• quadratic

• cubic

• constant

• linear

Describe the end behavior of the function.
y = 4x¹⁰

• down and down

• down and up

• up and down

• up and up

What is the degree of f(x)?

• 3

• 2

• 1

• 0

If a zero of a polynomial function has multiplicity 4 that means:

• The x intercept is at (4, 0)

• The graph will "bounce back" at that zero

• The graph will "pass through" at that zero

• Zeros cannot have multiplicity of 4

Which of the following could be a possible equation for the function shown?

• f(x) =-2x³ + x² - 5x + 1

• f(x) = 2x³ - 4x² + x + 1

• f(x) = 3x² + 5x + 1

• f(x) = -2x³ +3x - 1

What is the degree of the following function?
y = 25 - x²

• 25

• 1

• 2

• -1

Which of the following helps determine end behavior?

• The leading coefficient

• The number of terms in the function

• The y-intercept

• The x-intercepts
