HSF.IF.C.7.c: Graph polynomial functions, identifying zeros when suitable factorizations are available, and showing end behavior.

What you'll learn

  1. Identify the zeros (x-intercepts) of a polynomial function from a factored form and plot them on the coordinate plane
  2. Determine the end behavior of a polynomial from the degree and leading coefficient
  3. Describe and graph the effect of zero multiplicity: crossing at odd multiplicity, touching (bouncing) at even multiplicity
  4. Sketch a rough graph of a polynomial using zeros, end behavior, and multiplicity behavior as structural anchors
  5. Use technology to graph polynomials when factoring is not feasible and identify key features from the technology display
  6. Determine the maximum number of turning points for a polynomial of degree n (at most n - 1)
