Problem 5.        Worksheet 5:   TSFs and Graphical Representations II

Let f(x) be a polynomial function of degree at least 2.

1. In each case below, if the statement is true, then label it with a T (TRUE), draw a correct possible graph of f(x), and write down a correct formula defining an example of f(x)--choose among the small integers: -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 to label your x-intercepts.

2. Otherwise, if the statement is false, then label with an F (FALSE) and EXPLAIN CLEARLY and COMPLETELY why it is false.

Notation:  small circles are points on x-axis, large circles denote x-intercepts, large squares denote x-coordinates of bumps (peaks, valleys, or plateaus)
