Is it possible to have a polynomial of degree 7 without any x-intercepts? Why or why not?
It is not possible to have one because the polynomial has an odd degree, therefore the end behavior is opposite so at some point the function MUST cross the x-axis.

Is it possible to have a polynomial function with degree 10 that falls to the left and falls to the right? Why or why not?
What is yes it is possible because with an even degree polynomial, the end behaviors MUST be the same.
