Question

a polynomial that has 5 turning points is multiplied by another polynomial that has 3 zeros. what is the minimum degree of the new polynomial

Answer 1

Is the answer 9?

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

a polynomial is to be constructed that will touch the x axis at most 7 times . what is the minimum degree of the polynomial please help

Answer 4

@peachpi

Answer 5

7 for 7 zeros

Answer 6

So the answer is 7? @peachpi

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

One more please @peachpi

Answer 9

Given the following polynomial find the maximum possible number of turning points f(x)=x^14+x^6+x^9+x^3 @peachpi

Answer 10

max turning point = degree - 1

Answer 11

So it's -1 ?

Answer 12

what's the degree?

Answer 13

I have no clue

Answer 14

the degree is the highest exponent

Answer 15

take that number, subtract 1 to get the max turning points

Answer 16

So take 14-1 right

Answer 17

So 13 is the answer

Answer 18

yes

Answer 19

Thank you so much!!!!!!

Answer 20

you're welcome
