set the values of the y equal to zero
Yes, a polynomial function is always continuous
No it is not
A second-degree polynomial function is a function of the form: P(x) = ax2 + bx + cWhere a ≠ 0.
A value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero (apex)
The zero of a polynomial in the variable x, is a value of x for which the polynomial is zero. It is a value where the graph of the polynomial intersects the x-axis.
No. It would not be a polynomial function then.

To determine which linear expression is a factor of a given polynomial function, you typically need to perform polynomial division or use the Factor Theorem. If you can substitute a root of the polynomial into the linear expression and obtain a value of zero, then that linear expression is indeed a factor. Alternatively, if you have the polynomial's roots, any linear expression of the form ( (x - r) ), where ( r ) is a root, will be a factor. Please provide the specific polynomial function for a more accurate response.
No, log n is not considered a polynomial function. It is a logarithmic function, which grows at a slower rate than polynomial functions.
A rational function is the quotient of two polynomial functions.
That's the definition of a "rational function". You simply divide a polynomial by another polynomial. The result is called a "rational function".
fundamental difference between a polynomial function and an exponential function?
A polynomial function is simply a function that is made of one or more mononomials. For example 4x^2+3x-5 A rational function is when a polynomial function is divided by another polynomial function.
No it is not
A polynomial of degree 2.
That all depends on the meaning of the context. If you want to determine the values of the polynomial function, then you need to substitute the value for the input variable of the function. Finally, evaluate it. For instance: f(x) = x + 2 If x = 2, then f(2) = 2 + 2 = 4.
