What are the characteristics of a polynomial function?
Some of the characteristics of such a function are:The function is continuous (it doesn't make sudden jumps)The derivative is continuous (the function doesn't suddenly change its direction)The function is unbounded - as "x" grows larger and larger, f(x) approaches either plus or minus infinity (i.e., it grows without bounds).In the complex numbers, any polynomial has at least one zero.
Can the exponents in a polynomial function be negative?
No. It would not be a polynomial function then.
Which line has no endpoint and goes on forever?
A line representing any polynomial function, power function (including negative powers), trigonometric functions, most continuous probability distribution functions.
How does my knowledge of polynomial function prepare me to understand rational function?
A rational function is the quotient of two polynomial functions.
