Question

Describe this graph below in 2-4 sentences.

Answer 1

This is an example of a polynomial funciton because the graph of a polynomial function is a smooth continuous curve. Also, I had to graph a polynomial function in one of my past assignments, so I know its appearance.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Polynomial with a degree of 3 (due to 3 intersection points). Since the end of the graph is approaching positive infinity, we also know the equation of this graph has a positive coefficient.

(I don't know if you're in calculus yet, but...) We also know that there is a local min and local max, as well as inflection points as the graph changes concavity.
