5.2 Notes Graphing of Polynomial Functions
2
Features of Graphs of Polynomial Functions
1. Graphs are continuous
2. At most, n 1 turns, where n degree of
polynomial
Ex. x4 has at most ____ turns
3
y 2x3 x
y x4 9x2
3
  • If the leading coefficient is positive, the graph
    rises to the right. If it negative, the graph
    falls to the right.

y 2x3 x
y x4 9x2

Even and Odd functions
1. If the degree of the polynomial is even, the
graph has the same behavior to the left and right
(rise-rise or fall-fall)

Even and Odd functions
2. If the degree of the polynomial is odd, the
graph has the opposite behavior to the left and
right (rise-fall or fall-rise)
y 2x3 x
