One of the curve has three zeros at ,
and
.
Since curve has three -intercepts it is a third degree polynomial.
The curve has zeros at and
.
Since curve has two -intercepts it is a second degree polynomial.
The curve has zero at .
Since curve has one -intercept it is a first degree polynomial.
The third degree polynomial be the original function .
The derivative of a cubic function is a second degree function that means is a quadratic function.
The derivative of a second degree function is a first degree function means is a linear function.
Therefore third degree polynomial is correspond to .
Simillarly second degree is correspond to .
First degree is correspond to .
