This document discusses polynomial functions. It defines a polynomial function as a function of the form f(x) = anxn + an-1xn-1 + ... + a1x + a0, where an ≠ 0 and n is a whole number. The document provides examples of evaluating polynomial functions, using polynomials to model data, adding and subtracting polynomials, and graphing basic polynomial functions like identity, square, and cube functions. The objectives are to recognize and evaluate polynomial functions, use them to model data, add and subtract them, and graph basic polynomial functions.
