7 Key Features of Polynomial Functions x f(x) f(x) = x 3 + x 2 5x + 1 Vocabulary: Location Principal if the value of f(x) changes signs from one value of x to the next, then there is a zero (x-intercept, root) between the two x-values. Local Extrema: Relative Maximum the tops of the mountains (peaks) are relative maximums because they are the highest points in their little neighborhood Relative Minimum the lowest points (valleys) in the little neighborhood are relative minimums Turning Points Relative MAX and MIN are often referred to as turning points. A polynomial function with a degree n has at most (n-1) turning points Constant Function Degree 0 Linear Function Degree 1 Quadratic Function Degree 2 Graphs of Polynomial Functions Cubic Function Degree 3 Quartic Function Degree 4 Quintic Function Degree 5

The height is 4 feet less than the length. The volume of the box is 36 cubic feet. Find the length of the box. Words: If polynomial P(x) is divided by (x r), the remainder is a constant P(r), and Remainder Theorem Dividend equals qoutient times divisor plus remainder P(x) = Q(x) (x r) + P(r), where Q(x) is a polynomial with degree one less than P(x). Example: x 2 + 6x + 2 = (x 4) (x + 10) + 42 Deeper Look Synthetic Division vs. Synthetic/Direct Substitution Synthetic Division (2x 4 5x 2 + 8x 7) (x 6) Synthetic/Direct Substitution Find f(6)for f(x) = 2x 4 5x 2 + 8x 7

11 If f(x) = 2x 3 3x 2 + 7, find f(3) Factor Theorem Your Turn Words: The binomial (x r) is a factor of the polynomial P(x) if and only if P(r) = 0. Examples: (x 2 2x 15) (x 5) Determine whether x 3 is a factor of x 3 + 4x 2 15x 18. Then find the remaining factors of the polynomial. Examples (Depressed Polynomial) Determine whether x + 2 is a factor of x 3 + 8x x If so, find the remaining factors of the polynomial.

12 Name: Roots and Zeros 4.4/4.5 Class: Topic: Roots and Zeros Date: Main Ideas: Assignment: Use synthetic substitution to find f(2) for f(r) = 3r 4 + 7r 2 12r + 23 Use synthetic substitution to find f(6) for f(c) = 2c c Review Given a polynomial and one of its factors, find the remaining factors of the polynomial. k 4 + 7k 3 + 9k 2 7k 10; (k + 2) Application Question The function f(x) = x 3 6x 2 x + 30 can be used to describe the relative stability of a small boat carrying x passengers, where f(x) = 0 indicates that the boat is extremely unstable. With three passengers, the boat tends to capsize. What other passenger loads could cause the boat to capsize? Zeros, Roots, Factors, Intercepts, Solutions Words: Let P(x) = a n x n + + a 1 x + a 0 be a polynomial function. Then the following statements are equivalent. c is a zero of P(x). c is a root or solution of P(x) = 0. x c is a factor of a n x n + + a 1 x + a 0. If c is a real number, then (c, 0) is an x-intercept of the graph of P(x). Example: Consider the polynomial function P(x) = x 4 + 2x 3 7x 2 8x The zeros of P(x) = x 4 + 2x 3 7x 2 8x + 12 are 3, 2, 1, and 2. The roots of x 4 + 2x 3 7x 2 8x + 12 = 0 are 3, 2, 1, and 2. The factors of x 4 + 2x 3 7x 2 8x + 12 are (x + 3), (x + 2), (x 1), and (x 2). The x-intercepts of the graph of P(x) = x 4 + 2x 3 7x 2 8x + 12 are ( 3, 0), ( 2, 0), (1, 0), and (2, 0).

13 Fundamental Theorem of Algebra Every polynomial equation with a degree greater than zero has at least one root in the set of complex numbers. Example: Solve x 2 + 2x 48 = 0. State the number and type of roots. Solve y = 0. State the number and types of roots. Your Turn Solve x 2 x 12 = 0. State the number and type of roots. Solve a 4 81 = 0. State the number and type of roots. Corollary to the Fundamental Theorem A polynomial equation with degree n has exactly n roots in the set of complex numbers, including repeated roots. Examples: x 3 + 2x x 4 3x 3 + 5x 6 2x 5 3x Repeated Roots State the number and type of roots. f(x) = x 2 + 6x + 9

14 Descartes Rule of Signs Roots and Zeros 4.4/4.5 Let P(x) = a n x n + a 1 x + a 0 be a polynomial function with real coefficients. Then: the number of positive zeros of P(x) is the same as the number of changes in signs of the coefficients of the terms, or is less than this by an even number, and the number of negative zeros of P(x) is the same as the number of changes in signs of the coefficients of the terms of P( x), or is less than this by an even number. Example: f(x) = x 6 + 3x 5 4x 4 6x 3 + x 2 8x + 5 Find Numbers of Positive, Negative Zeros, and Imaginary Zeros p(x) = x 6 + 4x 3 2x 2 x 1 Your Turn Examples State the possible number of positive real zeros, negative real zeros, and imaginary zeros of p(x) = x 4 x 3 + x 2 + x + 3. What are all the zeros of f(x) = x 3 3x 2 2x + 4? More

15 Words: Let a and b be real numbers, and b 0. If a + bi is a zero of a polynomial function with real coefficients, then a bi is also a zero of the function. Complex Conjugate Theorem Example: If 3 + 4i is a zero of f(x) = x 3 4x x + 50, then 3 4i is also a zero of then function as well. Write a polynomial function of least degree with integral coefficients, the zeros of which include 4 and 4 i. Examples What is a polynomial function of least degree with integral coefficients the zeros of which include 2 and 1 + i?

16 Name: Rational Zero Theorem 4.6 Class: Topic: Rational Zero Theorem Date: Main Ideas: Assignment: Solve x 2 + 4x + 7 = 0 How many negative real zeros does p(x) = x 4 7x 3 + 2x 2 6x 2 have? Review What is the least degree of a polynomial function with zeros that include 5 and 3i? Rational Zero Theorem Watch YOUR P s and Q s Words: If P(x) is a polynomial function with integral coefficients, then every rational zero of P(x) = 0 is of the form p, a rational number in simplest form, where p is a factor of the constant term and q q is a factor of the leading coefficient. Example: Let f(x) = 6x x x 2 80x 40. If 4 is a zero of f(x), then 4 is a factor of -40, 3 and 3 is a factor of 6. List all of the possible rational zeros of f(x) = 3x 4 x List all of the possible rational zeros of f(x) = x 4 + 7x Your Turn List all of the possible rational zeros of f(x) = 2x 3 + x + 6.

17 Application Question The volume of a rectangular solid is 1120 cubic feet. The width is 2 feet less than the height, and the length is 4 feet more than the height. Find the dimensions of the solid. Find all of the zeros of f(x) = x 4 + x 3 19x x All Zeros Find all of the zeros of f(x) = x 4 + 4x 3 14x 2 36x + 45.
