Different types of graphs depend on the type of function that is graphed. The eight most commonly used graphs are linear, power, quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and sinusoidal. Each has a unique graph that is easy to visually differentiate from the rest.
The graphs of all polynomial functions. are smooth and continuous. A polynomial function of degree n has the form. where n is a positive integer and The polynomial functions that have. the simplest graphs are monomials of the form where n is an inte-. ger greater than zero. If n is even, the graph is similar to the graph of. and touches the axis at the x-intercept.
