Question

Consider the leading term of the polynomial function. What is the end behavior of the graph? Describe the end behavior and provide the leading term.
-3x5 + 9x4 + 5x3 + 3

Answer 1

the leading term has the greatest exponent ... 5 in this case
... you should use the "caret" symbol (^) for exponentiation

5 is odd, so the behavior at the positive and negative ends of the graph are opposite

a large negative x value causes the function to have a large positive value
... this is due to the negative coefficient of the 1st term

the opposite can be said of a large positive x value

Answer 2

Up and down

Answer 3

1= quintic
2= -8x^5+10x^4
3= down and up
4= there are two turning points
5= x=0,x=2,x=-3 (Meets at 8 on top)
Enjoyy!! Merry x-mas!!🎄

Answer 4

Jewel right but to help on the graphs this may help

1.A-quintic
2.B-8x^5+10x^4
3.C-down and up (look at end of sentence)
4.A-there are two turning points
5.A-x=0,x=2,x=-3 (Meets at 8 on top)
