Where an, an-1,a2, a1, a0 are constants. We call the term containing the highest power of x the leading term, and we call an the leading coefficient. The degree of the polynomial is the power of x in the leading term. We have already seen degree 0, 1, and 2 polynomials which were the constant, linear, and quadratic functions, respectively. Degree 3, 4, and 5
3 because the middle of 2 and 4 is three so three is the midpoint
The answer is the last option because the graph goes no greater than 75 and it also goes no greater than zero but it does hit zero and 75
