9. What is the relationship between the degree of the function and the number of turning points?
42
If the exponent is even, there will be one turning point, if the exponent is odd, there will be no turning point.

10. Describe the end behavior of functions with an even degree.
44
With an even degree, the end behavior will always be up and up.
45
11. Describe the end behavior of functions with an odd degree.
46
With an odd degree, the end behavior will allays be up and down.
47
12. Describe how the sign of a (whether a is positive or negative) affects the end behavior of a function (You may have to graph some additional examples to confirm your answer).
48
