    This document discusses polynomial functions and their graphs. It defines polynomials as expressions made of monomials with real number coefficients. It describes common polynomial types from constant to quartic functions and how to identify a polynomial by stating its degree, type, and leading coefficient. The document also explains how the end behavior of a polynomial function depends on whether it has an even or odd degree and whether the leading coefficient is positive or negative.
