Polynomial Function of the Fifth Degree

A fifth degree polynomial function can be defined like this:

f(x) = ax5 + bx4 + cx3 + dx2 + ex + f

5th Degree Polynomial Function Demonstration

This demonstration is meant to show how the shape of the graph of this function depends upon the values of its coefficients a, b, c, d, e, and f. Change these values by moving the sliders with your mouse, and notice how the this alters the form of the graph.

The bounds of this graph are:

x minimum = -10.0 x maximum = 10.0
y minimum = -10.0 y maximum = 10.0
