What are maximum or minimum turning points of curves??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

depends on the degree.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's probably over 9000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no literally, what are they???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

depends on the degree.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you are talking about a polynomial, then the answer is one less than the degree

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you are not talking about a polynomial, then there is no answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean one less?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if the degree is 5, then it can have at most \(5-1=4\) turning points

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok so would a graph of sine have a infinite amount of turning points, where as a quadratic graph will have only one turning point?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sweet

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if there are no restrictions
