Question

What are the possible degrees for the polynomial function

Answer 1

i was going to screenshot the answer bc i got it right but its

"odd 5 degrees or greater" :)

hope all you guys are healthy and safe

Answer 2

Degree of the polynomial function = 5

Explanation:

Since, the given graph of a polynomial has the x-intercepts at x = -2, -0.5, 0.5, 1.5, 3

Therefore, the equation of the polynomials with zero roots will be,

y = (x + 2)(x + 0.5)(x - 0.5)(x - 1.5)(x - 3)

When we solve this expression highest degree of the variable x will be 5.

Therefore, the possible degree of the polynomial function = 5
