§9.1: Polynomial Models How do you create and interpret Polynomial models? Polynomial: Expression in the form: anxn + an-1xn-1 + an-2xn-2 + a1x+ a0 Ex) a4x4 + a3x3 + a2x2 + a1x+ a0
Polynomial Function – Any sum or difference of power functions and constants. Degree – The exponent determines the degree of the function. Standard form – All like terms are combined. The function is written in descending order by degree. Leading Coefficient
Functions like y = x4 and w = .084C3 are power functions. Power function – A function with the form y = axn, where a≠0 and n is a positive integer. Even functions – Have the y-axis as the axis of symmetry Odd functions – have the origin as the point of symmetry. *A graph has point symmetry if there is a ½ turn (rotation of 180 deg) that maps the graph onto itself.
Try these Graph each function. Describe its symmetry. Tell whether it is even, odd, or neither. • Y = x5 • Y = IxI • Y = 2x + 3 • Y = 2x4

§9.3: Polynomial Models How do you find a polynomial model for a given set of data? Given the points: (1,1), (2,4), (3,10), (4,20) Find the degree of a function that would best model the function.
The Tool: Polynomial Difference Theorem: The function y = f(x) is a polynomial function of degree n iff the nth difference of corresponding y-values are equal and non-zero.
Example F(x) = 5x + 3 Pick x’s to plug in: x -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 y’s -7 -2 3 8 13 18 23 1st diff: 5 5 5 5 5 5 This function is of degree 1.
Example: X’s -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 f(x)=x2+x+3 3 3 5 9 15 23 33 1st difference 0 2 4 6 8 10 2nd difference 2 2 2 2 2 This is a 2nd degree model.
Ex. Given the pairs, determine what the degree of the function is: X’s 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Y’s -10 -7 8 47 122 245 428 1st diff: 3 15 39 75 123 183 2nd diff: 12 24 36 48 60 3rd diff: 12 12 12 12 Thus, a cubic model is best for the data. Use stat, Calc, cubic reg. to determine the fn. The function should be: f(x)= 2x3 + x - 10
Determine if y is a polynomial function of x of degree less than 5.IF so, find an equation of least degree for y in terms of x.

Synthetic Division (dividing polynomials) When you are dividing by a linear factor, you can use a simplified process (synthetic division). Linear factor – graphed, it would be a line. In synthetic division -omit all variables & exponents -reverse the sign of the divisor so you can add
Steps: • Reverse the sign of the divisor. Use 0 as a “place holder” for any missing term. • Bring down first coefficient. • Multiply the first coefficient by the divisor & write under next coefficient. • Add numbers, bring down. • Repeat steps 1-4 until done.
Examples (Synthetic Division) • Divide x2 + 3x – 12 by x – 2 x + 5 – 2/x – 2 2) Divide x2 + 5x + 6 by x + 2 x + 3 3) Divide 2x2 – 19x + 24 by x – 8. 2x - 3
9.5: Polynomials & Linear Factors Sometimes its more useful to work with polynomials in factored form: Ex. X3 + 6x2 + 11x + 6 = (x + 1)(x + 2)(x + 3) How could you prove these are factors of the polynomial?
Factor Theorem The expression (x – a) is a linear factor of a polynomial if and only if the value “a” is a zero of the related polynomial function. Ex. Graph y = x2 + 3x – 4 It crosses the x-axis at 1. Thus, (x – 1) is a factor of the polynomial. Also (x + 4) is a factor of the polynomial.
If a function is in factored form, you can use the zero product property to find the values that will make the function equal zero. Ex. F(x) = (x – 1)(x + 2)(x – 4) For what values of x will f(x) = 0? 1, -2, 4
What the answer tells you: In the previous example, (x – 1) and (x + 4) were the factors of the polynomial. Therefore: 1) -4 is a solution of x2 + 3x – 4 2) -4 is an x-intercept of y = x2 + 3x – 4 3) -4 is a zero of y = x2 + 3x – 4 4) x + 4 is a factor of y = x2 + 3x - 4
Factor-Solution-Intercept Equivalence Theorem All the following are equivalent statements • (x – c) is a factor of f • f(c) = 0 • C is an x-intercept of the graph y = f(x) • C is a zero of f • The remainder when f(x) is divided by (x – c) is 0.
Ex) Determine the zeros of the function y = (x – 2)(x + 1)(x + 3) x = 2, -1, -3 Ex) Write four equivalent statements about one of the solutions of the equation x2 – 4x + 3 = 0 Factors (x – 3)(x – 4)
Ex1 p.585 Factor g(x) = 6x3 – 25x2 – 31x + 30 • Use a calculator/graph to see if any roots are obvious. • Verify the root (calculator or plug in) • Use the conjugate as a factor & complete long division • Continue factoring all terms of higher power than 1
Finding Polynomials with Known 0’s Find an equation for a polynomial with zeros of -1, 4/5, and -8/3. Easy: (x + 1)(x – 4/5)(x + 8/3) = f(x) But, this is just one, to allow for other possibilities: If k is any non-zero term, this is more general: k(x + 1)(x – 4/5)(x + 8/3) = g(x)
