1. By: Alyssa McCarthy Polynomial Graphs

2. Different types of Graphs For a graph to “bounce off,” the exponent has to be even For the graph to squiggle through the x-axis, the exponent has to be odd To have a graph that passes through the x-axis, it has to be first power or no exponent

3. Graphing Without Calculator Y=(x+5)^2(x-1)(x+2) bounce, pass, pass Y=(x+4)(x+2)^2(x-1) pass, bounce, pass

4. End Behavior If it is even then they are both up If it is odd then the right is up and the left is down(normal) If it is odd then the right is down and the left is up(not normal)

5. Example Y=(x+3)(x-6)^5(x-4)^6(x+9) Degree=7 End behavior= down and up
