A polynomial is written in standard form when the values of the exponents are in descending order.
The coefficient of the first term of a polynomial in standard form is called the leading coefficient.

A polynomial function is a continuous function that can be described by a polynomial equation in one
variable. The simplest polynomial functions of the form 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑎𝑥𝑏 are called power functions.
Example 2: The volume of air in the lungs during a 5-second respiratory cycle can be modeled by 𝑣(𝑡) =
– 0.037𝑡3 + 0.152𝑡2 + 0.173𝑡, where 𝑣 is the volume in liters and 𝑡 is the time in seconds. This model is
an example of a polynomial function. Find the volume of air in the lungs 1.5 seconds into the respiratory
cycle.

If no other points nearby have a greater y-coordinate, it is a relative maximum.
If no other points nearby have a lesser y-coordinate, it is a relative minimum.
The maximum and minimum values of a function are called the extrema or turning points.
Example 3: Graph 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥3 − 3𝑥2 + 5. Estimate the x-coordinates at which the relative maxima and
relative minima occur.

substitution.

1993 and 𝑆(𝑥) is the number of students in thousands. How many U.S. college students will study abroad in

When you divide a polynomial by one of its binomial factors, the quotient is called a depressed
polynomial, which has a degree that is one less than the original polynomial.
