POLYNOMIAL

FUNCTIONS
Activity 1: Some polynomial equations are given below. Complete the
table and answer the questions that follow. (If a root occurs twice,
count it twice; if thrice, count it three times, and so on. The first one is
done for you)
ACTIVITY 2: FACT OR BLUFF
DIRECTIONS: WRITE FACT IF THE EXPRESSION BEING
SHOWN IS A POLYNOMIAL, OTHERWISE WRITE BLUFF.
POLYNOMIAL FUNCTION
A polynomial function is a function in the form 𝑷(𝒙) =
𝒂𝒏𝒙𝒏 + 𝒂𝒏−𝟏𝒙𝒏−𝟏 + 𝒂𝒏−𝟐𝒙𝒏−𝟐 + ⋯+ 𝒂𝟏𝒙𝟏 + 𝒂𝟎, where 𝑛 is a
nonnegative integer, n as a positive integer implies that:
a. n is not negative
b. n is not zero
c. n is not a fraction
d. n is not a radical, and
e. n is not imaginary
are real numbers called coefficients, is the leading term, is
the leading coefficient, and is the constant term.
