A: Concepts

Exercise $\PageIndex{A}$

1) What is the difference between an $x$-intercept and a zero of a polynomial function $f$?

2) If a polynomial function of degree $n$ has $n$ distinct zeros, what do you know about the graph of the function?

3) What is the relationship between the degree of a polynomial function and the maximum number of turning points in its graph? .

4) Explain how the factored form of the polynomial helps us in graphing it.

5) If the graph of a polynomial just touches the $x$-axis and then changes direction, what can we conclude about the factored form of the polynomial?

Answers to odd exercises:

1. The $x$-intercept is where the graph of the function crosses the $x$-axis, and the zero of the function is the input value for which $f(x)=0$.

3. The maximum number of turning points is one less than the degree of the polynomial.

5. There will be a factor raised to an even power.
