Polynomial functions of degree 2 or more are smooth, continuous functions. See
[link] .
To find the zeros of a polynomial function, if it can be factored, factor the function and set each factor equal to zero. See
[link],[link], and
[link] .
Another way to find the
intercepts of a polynomial function is to graph the function and identify the points at which the graph crosses the
axis. See
[link].
The multiplicity of a zero determines how the graph behaves at the
intercepts. See
[link].
The graph of a polynomial will cross the horizontal axis at a zero with odd multiplicity.
The graph of a polynomial will touch the horizontal axis at a zero with even multiplicity.
The end behavior of a polynomial function depends on the leading term.
The graph of a polynomial function changes direction at its turning points.
A polynomial function of degree
has at most
turning points. See
[link].
To graph polynomial functions, find the zeros and their multiplicities, determine the end behavior, and ensure that the final graph has at most
turning points. See
[link] and
[link].
Graphing a polynomial function helps to estimate local and global extremas. See
[link].
The Intermediate Value Theorem tells us that if

between

What is the difference between an
intercept and a zero of a polynomial function
The
intercept is where the graph of the function crosses the
axis, and the zero of the function is the input value for which
is it possible to leave every good at the same level

I don't think so. because check it, if the demand for chicken increases, people will no longer consume fish like they used to causing a fall in the demand for fish

is not really possible to let the value of a goods to be same at the same time.....

Suppose the inflation rate is 6%, does it mean that all the goods you purchase will cost
6% more than previous year? Provide with reasoning.
Not necessarily. To measure the inflation rate economists normally use an averaged price index of a basket of certain goods. So if you purchase goods included in the basket, you will notice that you pay 6% more, otherwise not necessarily.

How do I calculate this question: C= 100+5yd G= 2000 T= 2000 I(planned)=200.
Suppose the actual output is 3000. What is the level of planned expenditures at this level of output?

money as unit of account means what?
Kalombe
A unit of account is something that can be used to value goods and services and make calculations

all of you please speak in English I can't understand you're language

I want to know how can we define macroeconomics in one line
Muhammad
it must be .9 or 0.9
no Mpc is greater than 1
Y=100+.9Y+50
Y-.9Y=150
0.1Y/0.1=150/0.1
Y=1500

hi can someone help me on this question
If a negative shocks shifts the IS curve to the left, what type of policy do you suggest so as to stabilize the level of output?
discuss your answer using appropriate graph.
