Consider the polynomial function below: graph poly.jpg  a)  The degree of the polynomial is: [BLANK-1] b) The x-intercept(s) where the graph crosses the x-axis is/are: [BLANK-2] c) The x-intercept(s) where the graph touches the x-axis and turns around is/are: [BLANK-3] d)  Sketch the graph on your paper and label the question number. Your sketch of the graph is the only thing that you are required to write down for this question. When I grade the graphs, I will be looking for: x-intercepts that are accurately plotted correct behavior of the graph at each intercept as described in parts b and c correct end behavior.
