![]() For each zero r k, there is a corresponding factor x − r k, so that the factored form of the polynomial isį x = x − r 1 x − r 2 ⋯ x − r n If f r = 0, then x = r is called a zero of the polynomial, and x − r is then a factor of the polynomial. ![]() Is called quadratic, whereas if n = 3, the polynomial function, which then has the formį x = a 3 x 3 + a 2 x 2 + a 1 x + a 0 If n = 2, the polynomial function, which then has the formį x = a 2 x 2 + a 1 x + a 0 The integer n is the degree of the polynomial. Real polynomials are those whose coefficients are real numbers. , n, are the coefficients, with a n called the leading coefficient. ![]() Copyright Maplesoft, a division of Waterloo Maple Inc., 2021Ĭhapter 3: Graphing Polynomial Function sĪfter straight lines, the simplest functions to study are the real polynomials, the general form of which isį x = a n x n + a n − 1 x n − 1 +.
