4.1: Polynomial Functions
A polynomial function is any function of a single variable involving only constant coefficients and powers of that variable; i.e.:
Degree: Leading Coefficient: Zeros: Roots:
Find the roots of the following equation ? ? = ?2+ 5? + 6
Find the roots of the following equation
Find the roots of the following equation ? ? = ?2+ 4? + 5
Find the roots of the following equation by completing the square ? ? = ?2+ 5? + 6
Find the zeros for the function below by completing the square ? ? = ?2+ 4? 11
Find the zeros for the function below by completing the square ? ? = 2?2+ 6? 8
Find the zeros for the function below by completing the square ? ? = 3?2+ 7? + 7
Group Bell Work: Expand the following perfect squares. Look for any patterns you can find. (? + 3)2 (? + 5)2 (? + 10)2
Bell work: Evaluate the function ? ? =2+3? 5+5? Find ?(?3+ 1)
Write a polynomial with roots 15 and -277 How many times does this polynomial cross the x-axis?
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra Every polynomial equation with degree greater than 0 has at least one root in the set of complex numbers Therefore, every polynomial of degree n can be written as a product of n factors
Properties of Imaginary Numbers Powers of i Complex Numbers Conjugates
Write a polynomial with roots 5, 15, 22, 15 How many times does this polynomial cross the x-axis?
Write a polynomial with roots 3, i, and -i How many times does this polynomial cross the x-axis?
How many complex roots does the following equation have?
Group work: Turn in when complete Find the roots of the equations below by completing the square 1. 0 = 12?2+ 6? + 2 2. 0 = ??2+ 6? + 2 3. 0 = ??2+ ?? + 2 4. 0 = ??2+ ?? + ?
Determining location of zeros using the discriminant If ?2 4?? < 0, then two imaginary roots If ?2 4?? = 0, then one real root If ?2 4?? > 0, then two real roots
Complex Conjugates Theorem If a polynomial has a root of the form ? + ??, then it must also have a root of the form ? ??.
