Exercise 2
Step 1
1 of 5
Note that each of these examples has many solutions. It is important that the leading term is of the stated degree, while other terms or coefficients are not explicitly given and they can vary.
Step 2
2 of 5
*(a)* Leading term has to be of degree $3$. Since the number of terms is by $1$ greater than the degree of the function, all terms are included. One such example is
$$y=2x^3+3x^2-2x-5.
$$
Note that any other coefficient is allowed.
Step 3
3 of 5
*(b)* Leading term has to be of degree $4$. Note that beside the leading term, this function has to have two more terms. We can choose the term of any degree. One such example is
$$y=5x^4-2x^2-3.
$$
Note that any other coefficient is allowed, as well as the terms with $x^3$ or $x$.
Step 4
4 of 5
*(c)* Leading term has to be of degree $6$. Note that besides the leading term, this function has to have only one more term. We can choose the term of any degree. One such example is
$$y=12x^6-5x.
$$
Note that any other coefficient is allowed, as well as the terms with $x^5$, $x^4$, $x^3$, $x^2$, or constant term.
Step 5
5 of 5
*(d)* Leading term has to be of degree $5$. Note that besides the leading term, this function has to have four more terms. We can choose the terms of any degree. One such example is
$$y=3x^5-x^3+2x^2-7x+4.
$$
Note that any other coefficient is allowed, as well as the terms with $x^4$ instead of the chosen.
