Minimums and Maximums of a Quadratic Function for quadratic function f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k, the min/max value occurs at x=h -if a>0, f has min. value of k at x=h -if a<0, f has max. value of k at x=h -min/max is usually f(-b/2a)
End Behavior of Basic Polynomials Determined by degree n and sign of leading coefficient a -p(x) with even degree: if a>0, is upward parabola if a<0, is downward parabola -p(x) with odd degree: if a>0, is snakey from bottom left to top right if a<0, is snakey from top left to bottom right
Using Zeros to Graph Polynomials If P is a polynomial, then c is a zero (root, x-int) of P if P(c)=0
Intermediate Value Theorem If P is a polynomial and P(a) and P(b) are opposite signs, then there is at least one c between a and b such that P(c)=0
Guidelines for Graphing Polynomials 1. find zeros, factor 2. test points, make table of values. determine if graph is above or below x-axis 3. determine end behavior 4. graph
Determining the Shape of a Graph at Zero of Multiplicity m If c is a zero of P(x) and its corresponding factor (x-c) occurs exactly m times in the factorization of P, then c is a zero of multiplicity m
Division Algorithm for Polynomials Polynomial P(x) (dividend) and D(x) (divisor) and unique polynomials R(x) (remainder) and Q(x) (quotient): P(x)/D(x)=Q(x)+(R(x)/D(x))
Remainder Theorem If P(x) is divided by x-c, then the remainder is the value P(c)
Factor Theorem c is a zero of P(x) if and only if x-c is a factor of P(x)
Finding Rational Zeros 1. list all rational possible zeros 2. use synthetic division and test the possible rational zeros. record quotient when found 3. repeat process with recorded quotient
Decartes' Rule of Signs P is a polynomial with a real coefficient 1. the # of + real zeros of P(x) is either equal to the # of variations in sign in P(x) or is < that by an even # 2. the # of - real zeros of P(x) is either equal to the # of variations in sign in P(-x) or is < that by an even #
Upper Bounds If we divide P(x) by x-b (with b>0) using synthetic division and if the row containing the quotient and remainder >=0, then b is an upper bound for the real zeros of P
Lower Bounds If we divide P(x) by x-a (with a<0) using synthetic division and if the bottom alternates in sign, then a is a lower bound for the real zeros of P 0 can be positive or negative
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra Every polynomial with a complex coefficient has at least one complex zero
Complex Factorization Theorem If P(x) is a polynomial of degree n>=1, then there exists complex numbers a, c1, c2, c3,..., cn such that P(x) can be factored into P(x)=a(x-c1)(x-c2)...(x-cn)
Zero Theorem Every polynomial of degree n>=1 has exactly n zeros, provided that a zero of multiplicity k is counted k times
Complex/Conjugate Zeros Theorem If a polynomial P(x) has real coefficients and if the complex number z=a+bi, then the conjugate of z, z=a-bi is also a zero of P(x)
Rational Functions f(x)=p(x)/q(x) where p(x) and q(x) are polynomials
