For each of the groups below, identify the graph that does not belong and state your reasoning why that graph does not belong in your online journal.

Group One: The first graph does not belong because that equation is a linear equation due to its exponent being only one.
Group Two: Again, graph two doe not belong because it is a linear equation since its highest exponent is to the power of one.
Group Three: Graph three is also a linear equation.
Group Four: Graph three is a linear function.

Summarize the last two days of class in your online journal. We have discussed different methods for graphing polynomial functions in intercept form. In detail, explain the graphing method to a student who has missed the last two days.

Whenever graphing polynomials one needs to find the x-intercepts by having the parenthesis equal to 0. Finding the y-intercept is the next process where one just plugs 0 in for the variable x. The degree and the leading coefficient are the last two things. It tells one the end behavior allowing the completion of the graph.
