1. Write an equation for a polynomial with all the following features: (write 1 polynomial with all these features combined)

a. The degree is 5

b. the polynomial has 4 terms.

c. the graph of the polynomial crosses the vertical axis at y=12.

(You may want to use equation editor to help write this equation).

Answer 1

There are many such polynomials one of them is,

$y=x^5+x^3+x+12$

Here the degree is 5.

There are 4 terms

When $x=0, y=12$
