Graphs That Are Not Polynomial Functions. The graphs of and are graphs of functions that are not polynomials. The graph of a polynomial function will touch the x axis at zeros with even multiplicities.
Polynomial functions also display graphs that have no breaks. The graph of function is not continuous. The graphs of and are graphs of polynomial functions.
The graphs of and are graphs of polynomial functions.
The graph of a polynomial function will touch the x axis at zeros with even multiplicities. If a polynomial contains a factor of the form latex left x h right p latex the behavior near the x intercept h is determined by the power p we say that latex x h latex is a zero of multiplicity p. 7x 3 x 2 2. The graphs of f and h are graphs of polynomial functions.
