Answer:

The maximum number of turns is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=x^4-x^3+3x+1[/tex]

The degree of this polynomial is 4.

If the degree of a given polynomial is n, then the polynomial has at least n-1 turns.

Therefore the number of turns of this 4th degree polynomial is at least 3.
