Description and examples to build an understanding of the shapes of polynomials.

Use various methods in order to find all the zeros of polynomial expressions or functions. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video, or receive hints.

Analyze polynomial functions to determine how they behave as the input variable increases to positive infinity or decreases to negative infinity. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly,...

A quadratic equation is an equation that can be written on the standard form ax^2 + bx + c = 0, where a is not = 0. One way of solving a quadratic equation is by factoring. Another way of solving a quadratic equation is to solve it...

Here's a very detailed, step-by-step activity for students to do to learn about the relationship between the factored form of a polynomial function and its graph. Calculator instructions for the TI-83 are given, right down to the screen...

This resource provides an overview of graphing, giving examples of general polynomial, radical, rational, and piecewise functions. Also includes advice on common mistakes made by students.

Fourteen problems present a variety of practice analyzing graphs of polynomial functions using zeros. They are given with each step to the solution cleverly revealed one at a time. You can work each step of the problem then click the...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This lesson uses a graphing calculator to graph polynomial functions. Students examine guided notes, review guided practice, watch instructional videos and attempt...

Practice using your graphing calculator for solving exponent problems and factoring polynomials. If you get stumped or if you would like to check your work, then select the View Solution button, which is located directly under each problem.

Confused about graphing or just need a refresher? This explanation focuses on graphing higher-power polynomials along with radical functions, rational functions, and piecewise functions. Plenty of examples are included.

Learners demonstrate comprehension of advanced mathematical concepts in Algebra II. The questions check understanding on polynomial functions. Topics include degree, roots, and graphing.

The task has students use the remainder theorem to deduce a linear factor of a cubic polynomial, and then to completely factor the polynomial. Aligns with A-APR.B.3 and A-APR.B.2.

In this Derive activity, students use the Remainder Theorem to find a tangent line to the graph of a polynomial function.

This App allows students to calculate real and complex roots for polynomials up to degree 30 using eigenvalues and easily graph polynomials.

This activity utilizes the TI-Navigator and Activity Center to explore translations of a parent graph.

Students can use the TI-84 Plus family to analyze the end behavior of polynomial functions.

Students will be given binomials to multiply or trinomials to factor. The teacher will enter the binomials/trinomial into activity center and students must send in other form. Correct answers should match teacher graph.

To graph a rational function, you find the asymptotes and the intercepts, plot a few points, and then sketch in the graph. Once you get the swing of things, rational functions are actually fairly simple to graph. This resources provides...

Demonstrates the steps involved in factoring a general polynomial, including using the Rational Roots Test and synthetic division. Shows how to "cheat" with a graphing calculator.

Explains how to recognize the end behavior of polynomials and their graphs. Points out the differences between even-degree and odd-degree polynomials, and between polynomials with negative versus positive leading terms.

Select the graph that best suits a polynomial equation by considering the zeros of the polynomial. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video, or receive hints.
