Answer the following questions using what you’ve learned from these lessons. Write your
responses in the space provided, and turn the assignment in to your instructor.
For problems 1 and 2, state the x- and y-intercepts for each function.
1. f  x   x 4  5x 2  4
y = 4, and x = 2, -2, 1, -1
To solve for y, set x equal to zero.
(0)4 − 5(0)2 + 4 = 4 So, y = 4.
For x, use the root rational theorem, since f(x) = 0.
{±1,±2,±4}
= {(−2,0)(−1,0)(1,0)(2,0)} So, x = -2, -1, 1, and 2.
{±1}
You can graph the equation to check your answer.
2. f  x   x 5  x
y = 0, and x = 0, -1, 1
To solve, use the same processes as the last question.
(0)5 − (0) = 0 So, y = 0.
{±1}
{±1}
= {(−1,0)(1,0)} Since the y intercept is 0, that means another x intercept would also be
0. So, x = -1, 0, and 1.
You can check your answer by graphing the function.
For problems 3 and 4, describe the end behavior for each of the functions by writing a limit expression.

3. f  x   x 3  2
4.
f  x   2x 6  5x  4
For problems 5 and 6, use the graphs to state the zeros for each polynomial function. State the
multiplicity of any roots if the multiplicity is 2 or higher.
5. f  x   x 3  2x 2
6. f  x   3x  12x 3
For problems 7 and 8, identify the extrema for each function. Classify each as a relative (local) or
absolute (global) maximum or minimum value.
7. f  x   4x 3  12x 2  15
All of the information can be found by using the largest degree of the polynomial, n. In this
case, n is 3. The graph will have at the most n – 1 maximum or minimum values.
3 – 1 = 2. There will be a total of 2 turns in the graph.
Input the extreme value of x = 0 into the equation to get y = 15. (4(0)3 − 12(0)2 + 15 = 15)
Absolute Maximum: (0, 15)
Plug in the value of x = 2 into the equation to get y = -1. (4(2)3 − 12(2)2 + 15 = 4(8) −
12(4) + 15 = 32 − 48 + 15 = −1)
Absolute Minimum: (2, -1)
8. f  x   4x 3  15x 2  8x  3
Use the same method as the last question.
3 – 1 = 2. There will be a total of 2 turns in the graph.
Input x = 0 into the equation to get y = -3. (−4(0)3 + 15(0)2 − 8(0) − 3 = −3)
Absolute Maximum: (0, -3)
For problems 9 and 10, sketch a graph of each function.

Identify the vertical and/or horizontal asymptotes for each function.

= 1. To find the answer, you start by solving x – 1 from the
denominator. (x – 1 = 0, x = 1). This means that the domain includes all real numbers except
x = 1 or { : ≠ 1}.
Vertical asymptote(s): x
Horizontal asymptote: y = 5. To find the answer, you would use the 5 in 5x from the
numerator. This means that the range is all real numbers except for 5 or { : ≠ 5}.
You can check both of these by graphing the equation.
12. y 
3x
2x 2  1
Vertical asymptote(s): There is
no vertical asymptote because there are no undefined points.
Horizontal asymptote: y = 0. Since the denominators degree (2) is greater than the
numerators degree (1), the horizontal asymptote is the x axis.
Identify the oblique asymptote for each function.

For x, use the root rational theorem, since f(x) = 0.

2. f  x   x 5  x
y = 0, and x = 0, -1, 1
