POLYNOMIAL FUNCTION
A polynomial function is a function of the form
where
an ≠ 0 and n is nonnegative integer.
an x is the leading term (term with the highest power of x)
n
ACTIVITY
y= 4x4+x3+x2+8x+15
y= 6x2+16x+x3 -7
f(x)= x2-3x4 +1
Directions: Complete the table below. If the given is a polynomial function, give the
leading term, leading coefficient and its constant term. If it is not, then just give the
reason.
