How to find the degree and leading coefficient of a polynomial (mistake)
👉 Learn how to find the degree and the leading coefficient of a polynomial expression. The degree of a polynomial expression is the highest power (exponent) of the individual terms that make up the polynomial. For terms with more that...

How to write a polynomial in standard form
👉 Learn how to determine the end behavior of the graph of a polynomial function. To do this we will first need to make sure we have the polynomial in standard form with descending powers. We will then identify the leading terms so that...

Learn how to sketch the graph of a polynomial given factored form using multiplicity
👉 Learn how to use the tools needed to graph a polynomial function in factored form. A polynomial in factored form is when the polynomial is written as a product of its linear factors. Each linear factor represents an x-intercept and the...

Learn how to apply long division when you do not have a remainder
👉 Learn how to divide polynomials by binomial divisors using the long division algorithm. A binomial is an algebraic expression having two terms. Before dividing a polynomial, it is usually important to arrange the divisor in the...

Determining the asymptotes of a rational function
👉 Learn how to find the vertical/horizontal asymptotes of a function. An asymptote is a line that the graph of a function approaches but never touches. The vertical asymptote is a vertical line that the graph of a function approaches but...
