1
Apply polynomial models to real- world situations by fitting data to linear, quadratic, cubic, or quartic models.
2
You can use a graphing calculator to find a polynomial to model a particular data set. Ex: find the polynomial function that models the data. Enter into L1 and L2 Adjust window and make sure your STAT PLOT is on. Use 2 nd STAT then CALC Try graphing the LinReg, QuadReg, and CubicReg until you find the best fit.
3
For any set of n+1 points in the coordinate plane that pass the vertical line test, there is a unique polynomial of degree at most n that fits the points perfectly. Basically, if you have 2 points, you can graph a line. 3 points that are not on a line can determine a parabola. 4 points not on a line can graph a cubic, etc.
