PLEASE ANSWER BUT TAKE YOUR TIME. Write an equation for a polynomial with all the following features:

a. The degree is 5.

b. The polynomial has 4 terms.

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

Identify the approximate input values of any relative maximums and minimums of this 5th degree polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-1)^5 = x^5 - 5x^4 + 15x^3 - 15x^2 + 5x - 1

That has 6 terms, so let's get rid of the two middle ones.

f(x) = (x-1)^5 - 15x^2(x-1)

Now, f(0) = 1, but we want f(0) = 12

So, let

f(x) = 12((x-1)^5 - 15x^2(x-1)) = 12x^5 - 60x^4 + 60x - 12

As for the graph, it looks like

y = (x+4)(x+2)(x-1)^2(x-6)

The extrema appear to be at about (-3,1), (-1,-1), (1,0), (4,-9)
