What is a Maximum Turning Point?

The maximum turning point of a polynomial function is the highest point at which the function changes direction. It is calculated by subtracting 1 from the degree of the function. This concept is crucial in understanding the behavior of polynomial functions and is particularly useful in fields such as engineering and physics.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{MTP} = 3 - 1 = 2 \]

The Maximum Turning Point is 2.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{MTP} = 5 - 1 = 4 \]

The Maximum Turning Point is 4.
