300

Write the equation of the parabola in standard form

Vertex: (2,-4)

Passes through point (-5,1)

f(x)=5/49(x-2)2-4

Use Synthetic Division and the Remainder Theorem

f(x)=x3-7x2+5x-6 ; f(-6)

Is there a factor?

x2-13x+83-504/x+6

Q(x): x2-13x+83

R(x): -504

There is no factor, because using the Remainder Theorem the remainder should have been a zero in order for x+6 to be a factor

f(x)= 3x/x-1

Find x-int:

Find y-int:

How did you figure it out?

x-int: x=0

y-int: y=0

Axis of Symmetry?

X-int?

Y-int?

Vertex: (-2,-4)

Axis of Symmetry: x=-2

X-int: x=0 and x=-4

Y-int: y=0

f(x)= x3+x2-4x-4

Find Zeros and Multiplicity:

What is the End Behavior:

State the Symmetry:

x=-2 M=1

x=2 M=1

x=-1 M=1

End Behavior: Down, Up

State the Symmetry: The polynomial contains both even and odd exponents so it cannot have symmetry

400

Use Synthetic Division and the Remainder Theorem

f(x)=2x6+10x3+8 divided by x+1 ; f(-1)

Is there a factor?

2x5-2x4+2x3+8x2-8x+8

Q(x): 2x5-2x4+2x3+8x2-8x+8

R(x):0

f(-1)= 2(-1)6+10(-1)3+8

f(-1)= 2-10+8 = 0

The remainder is 0 so x+1 is a factor of this polynomial

What is the End Behavior:

State the Symmetry:

x=0 M=2

x=-2 M=1

x=2 M=1

End Behavior: Down, Down

State the Symmetry: Even, with respect to the y-axis. This means that the graph is a mirror image across the y-axis
