Graphs of Polynomials

Special Properties of Polynomial Graphs: (P-1) Polynomial graphs are continuous. The graph of a function is continuous if there are no breaks in the graph. Intuitively, this means that you can sketch the graph without taking your pencil off of the paper. Below are two examples of a continuous function and a discontinuous function. (P-2) Polynomial graphs are smooth. The graph of a polynomial does not have any sharp corners.

Definition 11.21: A local extremum is a local minimum or a local maximum. The plural of “local extremum” is “local extrema”. On a graph, a local minimum appears as the point at the bottom of a valley, and a local maximum appears as the point at the top of a mountain. This does not mean that it is the lowest valley or the highest mountain. You are looking for all valleys and all mountains. Example 11.22: Could the graph of a 7 th degree polynomial have 8 local extrema? Could the graph of a 7 th degree polynomial have 5 local extrema? Could the graph of a 7 th degree polynomial have 4 local extrema? Example 11.23: How many local extrema could the graph of a polynomial of degree 10 have?

Polynomial Division

The next theorem includes the phrase “The following are equivalent…” This means that all of the statements are true or all of the statements are false. It is never the case that some are true and some are false!

Finding Roots of Polynomials The roots or zeroes of a polynomial are often important in applications. When a polynomial has integer coefficients, the Rational Roots Theorem (below) allows us to narrow the search for roots that are rational numbers.
