Guess Who…

• Rules– Yes or No Questions ONLY– One question per person

• Whiteboards: Brainstorm questions you will ask to determine who you are

• Predict: How many questions until you figure out who you are?

Play…

• Once you figure out who you are sit back down

• Erase whiteboards and answer:– Did it take more or less questions than you

thought? Explain WHY this happened

Guess Who…What is the equation of this polynomial?

• Create a PLAN: How would you go about determining the equation?

Unit 3- Polynomials and Quadratics in the Real Number System

3A-I can identify key features of a polynomial (graphically &

algebraically) and explain the connection between roots, factors,

multiplicity, degree, and the stretch/compress factor in writing

equations of and graphing polynomials.

I. What’s in a Polynomial Name?A. Vocabulary

① A sum of monomials or a single monomial is considered a polynomial

② Polynomials can be written in two forms:i. Standard Form-Written with terms in descending order by

degree

ii. Factored Form-Written with factors instead of terms

③ Polynomials are classified by their degree (exponent with the highest value), their terms, or when possible both

B. Classifying Polynomials1) By Degree

0=Constant1=Linear2=Quadratic3=Cubic4=Quartic

2) By Terms1 term=Monomial2 terms=Binomial3 terms=Trinomial4 or more terms=Polynomial

C. Sketching Polynomials

– Use the chart and graphing calculators to sketch each polynomial in the correct “spot”

1) What is the connection between the degree of the polynomial and the roots of the polynomial?

2) Explain the difference between the graphs of polynomials with even degrees versus odd degrees.

3) Sketch what the graph of f(x)= -8x7 would look like. DEFEND in words that your sketch is “correct”.

The model y=0.0092x2-2.1036+120.333 only works for for a range of 0 ≤ y ≤ 120mm and a domain of 0 ≤ x ≤ 108.57 secs. Where y is the level of the water in the tank in mm and x is the time gone by in seconds. The water level starts at 120mm (y-intercept) and drains until the water level is at y=0 (x-intercept). Thus, at 108.57 seconds there is no more water in the tank (x-intercept). When we are asked to predict where the water level in the tank will be after 3 minutes which is equivalent of 180 seconds we know the model we have won't work because 180 seconds is outside of the domain. Thus, the quadratic model we have is limited to the domain of 0 ≤ x ≤ 108.57 secs. All we can really say is after 3 minutes the water level is still going to be at y=0.
