Question

Determine the maximum number of turning points of f. -f(x) = (x - 3)²(x + 5)² A) 3 B) 1 C) 4 D) 2

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The degree of the polynomial is 4 (since (x-3)^2(x+5)^2 expands to a polynomial of degree 4), and the maximum number of turning points for a polynomial is one less than its degree, which is 3.
