PPT-Polynomial Rollercoaster Project

Mrs Chernowski PreCalculus Chris Murphy Requirements At least 3 relative maxima andor minima The ride length must be at least 4 minutes The coaster ride starts at 250 feet The ride dives below the ground into a tunnel at least once. A polynomial in of degree where is an integer is an expression of the form 1 where 0 a a are constants When is set equal to zero the resulting equation 0 2 is called a polynomial equation of degree In this unit we are concerned with the number Neeraj. .
