23a. Relative maxima: x = – 3.5 and x = –1; Relative minima: x = –2.5 and x = 2
b. The zeros are at: x = –1.75, –0.25 and 3.5.
c . Since the graph has 4 turning points, the smallest possible degree of the polynomial function is (4 + 1) or 5.

d . Domain: {all real numbers}; Range: {all real numbers};
36.
SOLUTION:
a. Relative maxima: x = – 2 and x = 2.5; Relative minima: x = 1
b. The zeros are at: x = –3.5, and x = – 0.5.
c . Since the graph has 3 turning points, the smallest possible degree of the polynomial function is (3 + 1) or 4.
d . Domain: {all real numbers}; Range:
38.
SOLUTION:
a. Relative maxima: x = – 3.5, x = – 1.75 and x = 1; Relative minima: x = –2.5, x = –1 and x = 2
b. The zeros are at: x = –4, –3, 0, 1.5, and 2.75.
c. Since the graph has 6 turning points, the smallest possible degree of the polynomial function is (6 + 1) or 7.
d . Domain: {all real numbers}; Range: {all real numbers};

f (x) = 0.015x
– 0.44x
+ 3.46x
– 2.7x + 9.68
where x is the number of years after 1990 and f (x) is the number of subscribers in millions.
a. Graph the function.
b. Describe the end behavior of the graph.
c. What does the end behavior suggest about the number of pager subscribers?
d. Will this trend continue indefinitely? Explain your reasoning.
SOLUTION:
a. Use a graphing calculator to graph the function.
