[G-ItemA] Direction: Kindly answer the given questions completely and correctly. Any missing answer will result to DISLIKING your solutions. Note: Please answer all questions. Graphing a Polynomial FunctionTo sketch the graph of a polynomial function we need to consider the following:A. leading termB. behavior of the graphThe graph of a polynomial function:1. comes down from the extreme left and goes up to the extreme right if n is even and an>0.2. comes up from the extreme left and goes up to the extreme right if n is odd and an>0.3. comes up from the extreme left and goes down to the extreme right if n is even and an<0.4. comes down from the extreme left and goes down to the extreme right if n is odd and an<0.a>0a <0n is evenn is odd~ ~C. x-interceptsD. multiplicity of rootsIf r is a zero of odd multiplicity, the graph of P(x) crosses the x-axis at r.if r is a zero of even multiplicity, the graph of P(x) is tangent to the x-axis at r.E.y-interceptF. number of turning pointsTurning points are points where the graph from increasing to decreasing function value, or vice versa. The number of turning pointsin the graph of a polynomial is strictly less than the degree of the polynomial. Also, we must note that;1. Quartic Functions: have an odd number of turning points; at most 3 turning points2. Quintic functions: have an even number of turning points, at most 4 turning points3. The number of turning points is at most (n-1). 3. y= (2x+3)(x-1)(x-4)A. leading term:B. behavior of the graph:(nisand an_0)C. x-intercepts:the polynomial in factored form isy=.D. multiplicity of roots:_E. y-intercept:_F. number of turning points:G. sketch:
