What is the smallest degree a polynomial with five relative minima and six relative maxima could have?(1 point)
1 answer
To have five relative minima and six relative maxima, the polynomial must have at least eleven turning points. Since a polynomial of degree n can have at most n-1 turning points, the smallest degree the polynomial could have is 12.
