3 Rev.S08 Higher-Degree Polynomial Functions Click link to download other modules. -Nonlinear Functions and Their Graphs -Polynomial Functions and Models There are two major topics in this module:

4 Rev.S08 Let’s get started by looking at some polynomial functions. Click link to download other modules.

5 Rev.S08 Polynomial Functions Polynomial functions are frequently used to approximate data. A polynomial function of degree 2 or higher is a nonlinear function. Click link to download other modules.

6 Rev.S08 Is the Function Increasing or Decreasing? The concept of increasing and decreasing relate to whether the graph of a function rises or falls. Moving from left to right along a graph of an increasing function would be uphill. Moving from left to right along a graph of a decreasing function would be downhill. We speak of a function f increasing or decreasing over an interval of its domain. Click link to download other modules.

7 Rev.S08 Is the Function Increasing or Decreasing? (Cont.) Click link to download other modules.

8 Rev.S08 Example Use the graph of shown below and interval notation to identify where f is increasing or decreasing. Click link to download other modules. Solution Moving from left to right on the graph of f, the y-values decreases until x = 0, increases until x = 2, and decreases thereafter. Thus, in interval notation f is decreasing on

9 Rev.S08 Extrema of Nonlinear Functions Click link to download other modules. Graphs of polynomial functions often have “hills” or “valleys”. The “highest hill” on the graph is located at (–2, 12.7). This is the absolute maximum of g. There is a smaller peak located at the point (3, 2.25). This is called the local maximum.

10 Rev.S08 Extrema of Nonlinear Functions (Cont.) Click link to download other modules. Maximum and minimum values that are either absolute or local are called extrema. A function may have several local extrema, but at most one absolute maximum and one absolute minimum. It is possible for a function to assume an absolute extremum at two values of x. The absolute maximum is 11. It is a local maximum as well, because near x = –2 and x = 2 it is the largest y-value.

11 Rev.S08 Absolute and Local Extrema Click link to download other modules. The absolute maximum is the maximum y-value on the graph y = f(x).

12 Rev.S08 Example Click link to download other modules. The monthly average ocean temperature in degrees Fahrenheit at Bermuda can be modeled by where x = 1 corresponds to January and x = 12 to December. The domain of f is D = {x|1 }. (Source: J. Williams, The Weather Almanac 1995.) Graph f in [1, 12, 1] by [50, 90, 10]. Estimate the absolute extrema. Interpret the results. Solution

13 Rev.S08 Example (Cont.) Click link to download other modules. b)Many graphing calculators have the capability to find maximum and minimum y-values. An absolute minimum of about 61.5 corresponds to the point (2.01, 61.5). This means the monthly average ocean temperature is coldest during February, when it reaches An absolute maximum of about 82 corresponds to the point (7.61, 82.0), meaning that the warmest average ocean temperature occurs in August when it reaches a maximum of

14 Rev.S08 What is an Even Function? lick link to download other modules. If a graph was folded along the y-axis, and the right and left sides would match, the graph would be symmetric with respect to the y-axis. A function whose graph satisfies this characteristic is called an even function.

15 Rev.S08 What is an Odd Function? Click link to download other modules. When the symmetry occurs in respect to the origin. If the graph could rotate, the original graph would reappear after half a turn (clockwise or counter-clockwise.) This represents an odd function.

16 Rev.S08 Is the Function Even or Odd? Click link to download other modules. Identify whether the function is even or odd. Solution Since f is a polynomial containing only odd powers of x, it is an odd function. This also can be shown symbolically as follows.

17 Rev.S08 Turning Points of a Polynomial Function A polynomial function f of degree n can be expressed as f(x) = a n x n + … + a 2 x 2 + a 1 x + a 0, where each coefficient a k is a real number, a n  0, and n is a nonnegative integer. A turning point occurs whenever the graph of a polynomial function changes from increasing to decreasing or from decreasing to increasing. Turning points are associated with “hills” or “valleys” on a graph. Click link to download other modules.

18 Rev.S08 What are the characteristics of different types of polynomial functions? Click link to download other modules.

21 Rev.S08 Quadratic Polynomial Functions Click link to download other modules. Degree 2 - parabola that opens up or down. Zero, one or two x-intercepts. Exactly ONE turning point, which is also the VERTEX.

22 Rev.S08 Cubic Polynomial Functions Click link to download other modules. Degree 3. Up to three x-intercepts. Up to two turning points.

23 Rev.S08 Quartic Polynomial Functions Click link to download other modules. Degree 4. Up to four x-intercepts. Up to three turning points.

24 Rev.S08 End Behavior of Polynomial Functions Click link to download other modules.

25 Rev.S08 Main Characteristics of Polynomial Functions Click link to download other modules. Degree, x-intercepts, and turning points The graph of a polynomial function of degree n  1 has at most n x-intercepts and at most n − 1 turning points.

26 Rev.S08 Example Click link to download other modules. Use the graph of the polynomial function shown. a) How many turning points and x-intercepts are there? b) Is the leading coefficient a positive or negative? Is the degree odd or even? c) Determine the minimum degree of f. SolutionSolution a) There are three turning points corresponding to the one “hill” and two “valleys”. There appear to be 4 x-intercepts.a) There are three turning points corresponding to the one “hill” and two “valleys”. There appear to be 4 x-intercepts.

27 Rev.S08 Example (Cont.) Click link to download other modules. b) Is the leading coefficient a positive or negative? Is the degree odd or even? The left side and the right side rise. Therefore, a > 0 and the polynomial function has even degree. c) Determine the minimum degree of f. The graph has three turning points. A polynomial of degree n can have at most n − 1 turning points. Therefore, f must be at least degree 4.

28 Rev.S08 Let’s Practice One More Time Click link to download other modules. Let f(x) = 3x 4 + 5x 3 − 2x 2. a) Give the degree and leading coefficient. b) State the end behavior of the graph of f. Solution a) The term with the highest degree is 3x 4 so the degree is 4 and the leading coefficient is 3. b) The degree is even and the leading coefficient is positive. Therefore the graph of f rises to the left and right. More formally,
