How do you do a polynomial?

Basically the same way you graph most functions. You can calculate pairs of value - you express the polynomial as y = p(x), that is, the y-values are calculated on the basis of the x-values, you assign different values for "x", and calculate the corresponding values for "y". Then graph them.

You can get more information about a polynomial if you know calculus. Calculus books sometimes have a chapter on graphing equations. For example: if you calculate the derivative of a polynomial and then calculate when this derivate is equal to zero, you will find the points at which the polynomial may have maximum or minimum values, and if you calculate the derivative at any point, you'll see whether the polynomial increases or decreases at that point (from left to right), depending on whether the derivative is positive or negative. Also, if you calculate when the second derivative is equal to zero, you'll find points at which the polynomial may change from convex to concave or vice-versa.
