Today students studied for their Ch. 3 Polynomial Functions Test. The test is being written on Monday October 31st.
Today we went over the Ch. 3 Polynomial Functions Test outline. Students then worked on 3.6 Chapter Review questions.
Assignment: p. 150 #1-50 Today we finished 3.2 Graphing Polynomial Functions by looking at how to find the equation of a polynomial function from its graph.
Assignment: p. 127 #1ace, 2, 3, 4egi, 5, 7 Students were also given a Graphing Polynomials Quiz to complete and hand in and a Polynomial Functions Review Assignment. Today students wrote a Polynomial Theorems Quiz. After the quiz, we went over 3.2 Graphing Polynomial Functions. We used the properties of a polynomial to determine the end behaviour, y-intercept, x-intercepts, multiplicity of the roots, and turning points. We then drew a reasonably good graph of the polynomial.
Assignment: p. 127 #1ace, 2, 3, 4egi, 5, 7 Today we went over 3.1 Properties of Polynomial Functions. Knowing the properties of the function will help us to draw accurate graphs.
Assignment: p. 119 #1-7, 9acegij Today we went over 3.5 Polynomial Applications. We used our knowledge of solving polynomial equations to solve a word problem.
Assignment: p. 148 #1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9 Students were also given a Solving Polynomial Equations Quiz. Today we finished 3.4 The Remainder Theorem and the Factor Theorem by learning how to solve a polynomial equation by factoring. Students learned about the Rational Root Theorem and combined that with the Factor Theorem and synthetic division to factor a polynomial.
Assignment: p. 143 #1ab, 2acgh, 3, 4abcde, 5 Today we started 3.4 The Remainder Theorem and Factor Theorem. We looked at how the remainder theorem can give us factors of a polynomial so that we can solve a polynomial equation.
Assignment: p. 143 #1ab, 2acgh, 3, 4abcde, 5 Today we finished our lesson on 3.3 Polynomial Division by learning about synthetic division. This process gives a quick way to divide a polynomial by a binomial in the form x-a.
