2. Graph:
Step 1: Find the range
Determine the n and the leading
coefficient of the given
polynomial function.
2. Graph:
Step 2: Find the roots/zeroes
The factored form of is (-x + 2)(x - 3),
hence the roots/zeros are 2 and 3.
n = 2 and
2. Graph:
Since n is even and the leading coefficient is
less than 0 or negative, thus the range of f is
(-, 0.25].
The graph is opening downward because is
negative.
2. Graph:
Step 3: Graph the function
Plot the roots/zeros as x-intercepts of the
graph. These values divide the number line
into intervals.
The intervals are (, 2), (2, 3) and (3, ).
The table of values is shown below
Sample
Interval x-value in f(x) or y The points or ordered pairs
the interval are, the x – intercepts (2, 0),
(, 3) 2 0 (3, 0) and the ordered pairs
(2, 3) 2.5 0.25 from the table (2.5, 0.25)
() 4 -2 and (4, -2).
