Algebra 2 Polynomial Graphing

• Grace is thinking that there is no number in the leading coefficient.

• Grace is thinking that the highest exponent is an even number.

• Grace is thinking that there is no constant in the the polynomial function.

• Grace is guessing.

Which equation MOST LIKELY matches the graph?

• y = x⁴ - x³ + 3x² + 2

• y = -x⁴ + x³ + 5x + 2

• y = x³ - 2x² + 1x + 3

• y = -x³ - 2x² + 1x + 3

Which of the following could be the equation of this graph in factored form? (Careful-pay attention to multiplicity.)

• f(x) = (x-4)(x-1)²(x+2)(x+4)

• f(x) = (x-4)(x+1)²(x+2)(x+4)

• f(x) = (x-4)(x-1)²(x-2)(x+4)

• f(x) = (x+4)(x+1)²(x-2)(x-4)
