polynomial functions
Question
Before we studied polynomial functions we looked at Linear Functions and Quadratic
Functions. Linear Functions are polynomials with a degree of 1. Quadratic Functions are polynomials with a degree of 2. All higher degreed polynomials relate back to the linear or quadratic function in some way. Think about the similarities and differences of the linear and quadratic functions to the polynomial functions. Which higher degreed polynomials are like the linear function? Which higher degreed polynomials are like the quadratic function? How are they different? Share your thoughts with the rest of the class. An initial posting and 2 responses to other students is required.
