A polynomial function is a function of the form
f (x) = an x n + an – 1 x
n – 1 +· · ·+ a 1 x + a 0
Where an 0 and the exponents are all whole numbers.
A polynomial function is in standard form if its terms are written in descending order of exponents from left to right.
For this polynomial function, an is the leading coefficient,
a 0 is the constant term, and n is the degree.

Identifying Polynomial Functions
Decide whether the function is a polynomial function. If it is,write the function in standard form and state its degree, typeand leading coefficient.
f (x) = x 2
– 3x4 – 712
SOLUTION
The function is a polynomial function.
It has degree 4, so it is a quartic function.
The leading coefficient is – 3.
Its standard form is f (x) = – 3x 4
+ x 2 – 7. 1

Decide whether the function is a polynomial function. If it is,write the function in standard form and state its degree, typeand leading coefficient.
Identifying Polynomial Functions
The function is not a polynomial function because the
term 3
x does not have a variable base and an exponentthat is a whole number.
SOLUTION
f (x) = x 3 + 3

If “n” is even, the graph of the polynomial is “U-shaped” meaning it is parabolic (the higher the degree, the more curves the graph will have in it).
If “n” is odd, the graph of the polynomial is “snake-like” meaning looks like a snake (the higher the degree, the more curves the graph will have in it).

GRAPHING POLYNOMIAL FUNCTIONS
The end behavior of a polynomial function’s graphis the behavior of the graph as x approaches infinity(+ ) or negative infinity (– ). The expressionx + is read as “x approaches positive infinity.”
