4 Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials Syllabus Objective: 6.1 The student will graph a polynomial function with and without technology. Polynomial Function: a function of the form n f a a... a a a, a 0 n n 1 n n Note: Eponents are whole numbers and coefficients are real numbers. Leading Coefficient: a n Constant Term: a 0 Degree: n Note: Consider using the Frayer Model (Vocabulary Concept Grid) Activity See resource pages. Standard Form of a Polynomial Function: The terms are written in descending order of the eponents Names of Polynomial Functions: Degree Type Standard Form This is kind of tricky- but a n is the name of the coefficient with the same degree. So, a n is the coefficient of the term that is the n th degree and a n-1 is the coefficient of the term that is degree n-1. 0 Constant 1 Linear f a 0 f a1 a 0 Quadratic f a a1 a 0 Cubic f a a a1 a 0 4 Quartic 4 f a4 a a a1 a 0 Identifying Polynomial Functions E 1: Is f 5 8 a polynomial function?

Graphing Polynomial Functions: To graph a polynomial function, make a table of values using synthetic substitution, plot the points, and determine the end behavior to draw the rest of the graph. End Behavior: the behavior of the graph as gets very large (approaches positive infinity ) OR as gets very small (or approaches negative infinity ). Notation: ( approaches positive infinity ) (The very far right end of a graph). ( approaches negative infinity) (The very far left end of a graph). Page 5 of 7 McDougal Littell

Dividing Polynomials Using Long Division On Your Own: Find the quotient of 1,6 and 4 using long division. On Your Own: Find the quotient of 4 y y y 5 and y y 1.

18 Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials Syllabus Objectives: 6.7 The student will identify all possible rational zeros of a polynomial function by using the rational root theorem. 6.4 The student will find rational zeros of a polynomial. Using the Rational Zero Theorem Review: Rational zero is a rational number that produces a function value of 0. It can be visualized as f( ) 0 where is a rational number. On the graph it is an -intercept. The Rational Zero Theorem If f ( ) a n n... a1 a0has integer coefficients, then every rational zero of p factor of constant term a0 f has the following form: q factor of leading coefficient a n The first important step is to list the possible rational zeros. After they are listed we can test them to determine if they are rational zeros. If the value of the possible rational zeros =0, they are called zeros. List the possible rational zeros: E 1: Find the possible rational zeros of f ( ) 7 1 Step 1: The leading coefficient is 1. 1 is the only factor of 1. Step : The constant is 1. All of the factors of 1 are 1,,, 4, 6, 1. Step : List the possible factors ,,,,,and *If we tested for actual zeros using synthetic substitution from previous lessons we would find that and 4 are zeros. This also means that 5 could not be a zero, 7 could not be a zero, 1 could not be a zero. E : Find the possible rational zeros of f ( ) Step 1: The leading coefficient is. The factors of are 1 and. Step : The constant is -5. All of the factors of -5 are 5, 1. Step : List the possible factors ,,, 1 1 *We will not test for actual zeros for this eample. This also means that could not be a zero, -4 could not be a zero, could not be a zero. When the leading coefficient is not 1, the list of possible zeros can increase dramatically. There are many tools that are used to find the rational zeros. We know some of those tools now and others will be introduced later in the class. Eamples that follow will demonstrate some of them.

19 E : Find all the real zeros of Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials f Step 1: Put the function in standard order. f Step : List possible rational zeros (1,,,4,6,8,9,1,18,4,6,7) Step : Try the possible zeros until you find one From previous lessons, the function can be reduced to: f 4 Then factored: f 6 ( 4) Zeros: ( 4) Note: Finding rational zeros is also referred to as finding real zeros. Rational numbers are also real numbers. There is a distinction between listing possible rational zeros and finding rational (real) zeros. E 4: Find all of the real zeros of f Step 1: Notice that each term contains a common factor of. The problem can be factored to f ( 4 6) and since 0only ( 4 6) can be =0. Step : List possible rational zeros (1,,,6) (Since the leading coefficient is now 1) Step : Try the possible zeros until you find one From previous lessons, the function can be reduced to: f Then factored: f ( 1) 0 0 ( 1) 0 Zeros: 1 Page 19 of 7 McDougal Littell

Page 0 of 7 McDougal Littell

21 Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials Syllabus Objective: 6.5 The student will use the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra to determine the number of zeros of a polynomial function. The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra If f is a polynomial of degree n where n 0, then the equation f ( ) 0 has at least one root in the set of comple numbers. Finding the number of solutions or zeros Review: Find the solutions of the following eamples. State how many solutions each has and classify each zero as rational, irrational, or comple (imaginary). E 1: 1 0 E : 9 0 E : 1 0 (Hint: Use the factorization for the difference of cubes, then use the quadratic formula for the quadratic factor.) Do you notice a pattern with the degree of the polynomial and the number of solutions each has? E 4: How many different solutions are there to How do you eplain this number? ? E 5: How many different solutions are there to Solution: 4 i, 4i 16 0? Note: On the graph, the imaginary roots do not cross the -ais. Note: 4 i, 4i are comple conjugate pairs. 1 i, 1 i are comple conjugate pairs. The comple roots of polynomial functions with real coefficients always occur in comple conjugate pairs. Is this also the case for irrational zeros? Page 1 of 7 McDougal Littell

22 Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials Finding the zeros of a polynomial function This activity involves finding the rational zeros as learned in the previous section, then using other tools, such as the quadratic formula or technology, to find the irrational or comple roots. E 1: Find all zeros of 4 f ( ) Using the rational root theorem and synthetic division, it can be shown that is a repeated root and and -1 are roots. The factored form looks like this: ( ) ( )( 1). The graph is shown. When a factor k is raised to an odd power, the graph crosses through the -ais. When a factor k is raised to an even power, the graph is tangent to the -ais. Solution: There are four real zeros is a repeated root and and -1 are roots. E : Find all zeros of 4 f ( ) 5 0 Using the rational root theorem and synthetic division, it can be shown that and - are roots. Using the pattern of E 5 it can be shown that Using the quadratic formula 5 yields zeros of = i 5 f 4 ( ) 5 0 factors to ( )( )( 5) Solution: There are four zeros, and - and i 5. Two are real and two are comple conjugates Using Zeros to Write Polynomial Functions E 1: Write a polynomial function f of least degree that has real coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and, and -5 as zeros. Step 1: Write f( ) in factored form: f ( ) ( )( )( 5) Step : Review - Multiply the polynomials two at a time. Because they are binomials, we can use FOIL to multiply the first two. f ( ) ( 5 6)( 5) f ( ) 19 0 Solution: f ( ) 19 0 Page of 7 McDougal Littell

23 Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials E : Write a polynomial function f of least degree that has real coefficients, a leading coefficient of 1, and 1, -, and 1- i as zeros. Step 1: Since 1- i is a zero, so is 1+ i Step : Write f( ) in factored form: f ( ) ( 1)( )( (1- i) ( (1+ i )) Step : Regroup: f ( ) ( 1)( ) ( 1)- i ( 1)+ i Step 4: Epand, multiply polynomials, and combine like terms. f ( ) ( ) ( 1) - i f ( ) ( ) ( 1 1 f ( ) ( )( ) f 4 ( ) 6 4 Note: This graph only has two -intercepts.

E 1: 4 Approimate the real zeros of f ( ) Use a graphing calculator to graph and calculate the zeros. You Try: State the number of zeros of f 15 and find what they are. QOD: What is the conjugate of a comple number, and why is it important when finding all of the zeros of a polynomial function? Page of 7 McDougal Littell

24 Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials Syllabus Objective: 6.8 The student will analyze graphs of polynomial functions to determine its characteristics. Analyzing polynomial graphs Concept Summary n n 1 Let f a a... a a a be a polynomial function. n n The following statements are equivalent: Zero: k is a zero of the function f. Factor: Solution: -k is a factor of polynomial f(). k is a solution of the polynomial function f()=0. X- Intercept: k is an -intercept of the graph of the polynomial function f. Using -Intercepts to Graph a Polynomial Function E 1: Graph the function f 1 Step 1: Plot the -intercepts. Since + and -1 are factors, - and 1 are zeros (-intercepts) Note: + is raised to an odd power so the graph crosses the -ais at =-. -1 is raised to an even power so the graph is tangent to the -ais at =1. When a factor When a factor k is raised to an odd power, the graph crosses through the -ais. k is raised to an even power, the graph is tangent to the -ais. Step : Plot a few points between the -intercepts. f(0) ; f ( 1) 4 Step : Determine the end behavior of the graph. Cubic function (odd degree) with positive leading coefficient as, f as, f Step 4: Sketch the graph Page 4 of 7 McDougal Littell

25 Finding Turning Points Algebra II Notes Unit Si: Polynomials Turning points of polynomial functions: Another important characteristic of graphs of polynomial functions is that they have turning points corresponding to local maimum and minimum values. The y coordinate of a turning point is a local maimum if the point is higher than all nearby points. The y coordinate of a turning point is a local minimum if the point is lower than all nearby points. The graph of every polynomial function of degree n has at most n 1 turning points. Moreover, if a polynomial has n distinct real zeros, then its graph has eactly n 1 turning points. E 1: Identify the zeros and turning points (estimate the zeros and turning points) Turning point (ma) zero zero Turning point (min) Local ma Leading coefficient positive real zeros (including the double zero) {-, 1, 1} turning points (-1,4); (1,0) 1 local ma; 1 local min Turning point (ma) Leading coefficient positive 1 real zero, imaginary zeros {5} turning points (0,-); (,-8) 1 local ma; 1 local min zero Turning point (min) You Try: Leading coefficient real zeros Leading coefficient real zeros Leading coefficient real zeros Leading coefficient real zeros turning points turning points turning points turning points local ma; local min local ma; local min local ma; local min local ma; local min Page 5 of 7 McDougal Littell

Check your graph on the graphing calculator and You Try: Graph the function f 9 1 on the calculator and find the local etrema. QOD: What is the difference between local and absolute maima and minima? Eploring Data and Statistics (Notes are not provided for this material) Modeling with Polynomial Functions Write a polynomial function whose intercepts are given. Finding and Using Finite Differences Properties of finite differences 1. If a polynomial function f() has degree n, then the n th -order differences of function values for equally spaced values are non-zero and constant.. Conversely, if the n th order differences of equally spaced data are non-zero and constant, then the data can be represented by a polynomial function of degree n. Polynomial Modeling with Technology Graphing calculators make it easy to enter data, make a scatter plot, and calculate linear, quadratic, cubic, and quartic regressions. Unit Summary: Polynomial equations provide some of the most classic problems in all of algebra. Finding zeros and etrema have many real-world applications. Real-life situations are modeled by writing equations based on data and using those equations to determine or estimate other data points (speed, volume, time, profits, patterns, etc).
