How do you graph a polynomial in order to solve for the Zeros?
Either graph the polynomial on graph paper manually or on a graphing calculator. If it is a "y=" polynomial, then the zeroes are the points or point where the polynomial touches the x-axis. If it is an "x=" polynomial, then the zeroes are the points or point where the polynomial touches the y-axis. If it touches neither, then it has no zeroes.
Are a polynomial's factors the values at which the graph of a polynomial meets the y-axis?
Not quite. The polynomial's linear factors are related - not equal to - the places where the graph meets the x-axis. For example, the polynomial x2 - 5x + 6, in factored form, is (x - 2) (x - 3). In this case, +2 and +3 are "zeroes" of the polynomial, i.e., the graph crosses the x-axis. That is, in an x-y graph, y = 0.
What is a graph of a cubic function called?
A cubic graph!
What is the graph of quadratic polynomial called?
A parabola.
What is a polynomial function as a graph?
A polynomial function have a polynomial graph. ... That's not very helpful is it, but the most common formal definition of a function is that it is its graph. So, I can only describe it. A polynomial graph consists of "bumps", formally called local maxima and minima, and "inflection points", where concavity changes. What's more? They numbers and shape varies a lot for different polynomials. Usually, the poly with higher power will have more "bumps" and inflection points, but it is not a absolute trend. The best way to analyze the graph of a polynomial is through Calculus.
Will any 4 coordinates on a graph produce a Cubic equation?
Four points can produce a polynomial of at most the third order - a cubic. It is, of course, possible that the 4 points are collinear.

What is a synonym for third degree polynomial?
A cubic polynomial.
What graph touches the x axis three times?
A cubic polynomial: y = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d where a, b, c, and d are constants.
What do the zeros of a polynomial function represent on a graph?
The zeros of a polynomial represent the points at which the graph crosses (or touches) the x-axis.
If you multiply a linear polynomial by a quadratic one what is the degree of the product polynomial?
It will be a cubic polynomial.
A quadratic polynomial is a third-degree polynomial?
