Question

The graph of a polynomial function of degree n has at more ____ extreme values (turning points)

Answer 1

How many x- intercepts?

Answer 2

idk

Answer 3

doesn't say

Answer 4

Did you see the picture I drew? Do you have your answer from your previous question?

Answer 5

x-intercepts don't have anything to do with the extrema per se, just because there is an extrema doesn't mean it has to cross the x-axis. For example, take the graph y=x^2+2, that never cross the x-axis but has a minimum. In general however, an n-order polynomial will have n-1 extrema AT MOST.
