With two other people:Each person pick a letter, f, g, or hEach person will graph their functionAfter graphing each function, discuss the following
questions with your partner:How many zeros does each graph have?How many turning points does each graph have?Is there a limit on the number of turning points a graph
will have?
The functions f(x) = 3 x⁵ - 2 x⁴ - 6 x³ + x² + 3 g(x) = 2 x⁵ - 3h(x) = x⁵ + x⁴ - 4 x³ - 3 x² + 5 x

The graph of every polynomial function of degree n has at most n – 1 turning points
If a polynomial function has n distinct real zeros, then its graph will have exactly n – 1 turning points
Turning Points of Polynomial Functions

Local MaximumHighest point on a curve
Local MinimumLowest point on a curve
EVERY turn or change of direction = local max/min
Is it possible for a point to be a zero and a local max/min?

1. f(x) = 2 x⁴ - 5 x³ - 4 x² - 6
X-intercepts ≈ -1.16 and 3.21 Local min ≈ (2.31, -32.03) and (-0.43, -6.27) Local max ≈ (0, -6)
Examples: Graph Identify all x-intercepts and any local maximums or minimums.
